Passion about entrepreneurship and determination to create something of value motivates me to work each day!

I am a first generation entrepreneur who has been in the digital marketing and information technology space for more than 14 years. I have served more than 250 clients across the globe and helped solve their business & marketing problems. I learn and evolve each day as the field demands of me. I enjoy working in a team and strongly believe in winning together with all the stakeholders involved. In my new venture, CoChamps, I continue to focus on the same and happily serve others.

I am a Mechanical Engineer by chance and a Post Graduate in Business Entrepreneurship from EDII by choice. I failed in my first startup and incorporated the learnings in the second venture. I am a startup enthusiast and have been active in the entrepreneurial community. I believe in celebrating failures and encourage youth to start early, fail, learn & start again till they succeed.

I have had the honour to serve as a Secretary at the Entrepreneurship Development Insitute of India Alumni Association for more than 5 years.

I am also a spiritual seeker & certified soul healer and conduct meditation & healing sessions to serve humanity. I emphasise on living a life for a higher purpose. My purpose in life is to serve all beings by spreading love & light of the divine through my thoughts, words & actions and of course, add value to the lives of people & businesses through my entrepreneurial initiatives.

If you are someone who needs help with digital marketing or business consulting, or simply wants to have a conversation about living a meaningful life, it would be my pleasure to connect with you! :)

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”

“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."

"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."
