Piyush Joshi

Investor, Tracxn

I am an accomplished mechanical engineer and 2x founder passionate about driving innovation and growth. With a robust engineering foundation from NIT-Warangal, I have been fortunate enough to explore multiple entrepreneurial endeavors and contribute positively to the startup ecosystem. I raised for my second venture, before shutting down due to the pandemic.

Throughout my journey, I have had the privilege to mentor over 50 startups, helping them collectively raise > $3M. My expertise lies in providing crucial guidance on fundraising and coaching founders in various vital aspects such as team-building, strategy development, go-to-market planning, customer validation, and more.

I have empowered founders to recognize and rectify critical errors, facilitating pivotal course corrections and even enabling them to make the difficult yet necessary decision of closing down non-viable ventures. As a highly analytical thinker, I employ a first-principle and second-order approach, fostering founders' self-awareness of their capabilities. My inputs go beyond simply capitalizing on current trends but focus on equipping them to build enduring, sustainable, resilient businesses for long-term success.

My motivation as an entrepreneur extends beyond personal success. I am committed to giving back to the startup ecosystem and fostering the growth of entrepreneurs. I envision establishing a thriving environment where founders have the necessary skills and support to transform their ideas into successful ventures.

If you are a passionate founder seeking guidance, support, or collaboration, I am always open to connecting.

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.”

“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!”

"I attended my first eChai event 3 yrs back, and no one knew me in the market. Over the next three years, eChai didn’t only help me with knowledge or networking, but it gave me an identity from being unknown to now being recognized by a group of inspirational entrepreneurs connected with eChai, who have been gracious enough to acknowledge me and Digipple."
