Meet Desai

GenAI Explorer | Gen AI Engineer | iOS Consultant

I am an iOS Developer and Product Engineer with a passion for Generative AI. With over 10 years of experience in the tech industry, I have developed more than 30 iOS apps, focusing on delivering seamless user experiences. My expertise has allowed me to contribute to prominent projects like HDFC PayZapp and Infosys’ iOS teams.

My deep interest in AI has led me to explore Generative AI technologies. I have conducted over 35 workshops across businesses, colleges, and corporate offices, helping spread AI awareness and teaching practical applications of the technology. As an iOS professor, I have trained more than 200 students in the field.

In addition to my technical achievements, I am an avid marathon runner, having completed over 25 half marathons and 3 full marathons. My core goal is to raise AI awareness, empowering individuals to grow exponentially and contributing to India’s vision of achieving a $30 trillion economy.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."

"I have evolved from role of Community Builder to Startup Consultant to Startup Ecosystem Enabler to Angel Investor and now launching a Venture Studio and eChai has been a catalyst in my overall journey as Startup Evangelist since 13 years."

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”
