Mehul Bardolia

Founder, Sutra Labs

Being an entrepreneur in the functional wellness field, I have the ability to combine my customer service skills with my love for holistic health. Presently, I run a niche agro-farm-lab that grows a functional mushroom called Cordyceps which is medicinal as well.

Given my experience working in retail pharmacy client services and as a float therapy instructor, I am able to cater to both physical and mental wellness concerns. This experience informed my transition into the burgeoning functional mushroom industry, where I am helping to meet the market’s appetite for natural health offerings.

I am keen to link up with other entrepreneurs or investors with the same interest in furthering wellness in an unconventional way. Having started my career in customer relations, I am now ready to explore the dynamic functional foods and wellness sectors as an entrepreneur.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai has been a game changer in my journey. It connected me with real people, real support and real opportunities. From building HMMBiz to launching Mindalcove, eChai has played a key role at every step. Grateful to be part of a community that truly believes in growing together."
Hardik Manwani - CTO, Mind Alcove

“You don’t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up … and one day, you realize you did.” I’ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, we’ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts — our venture builder — eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isn’t just a startup network. It’s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."

"After moving back from the USA, eChai became my go-to space to learn how the Indian startup ecosystem works. It offered direct exposure to startup thinking and a community that openly shares business insights. What stood out was how easy it was to connect, learn, and grow through real conversations. As we built our IT hardware rentals business, eChai helped us find our niche and refine our path. Proud and grateful to be part of this amazing community."
