Piyush Sahoo

Founder of Apna Meet-Up

Hello! I'm Piyush Sahoo, a 3rd-year Computer Science Engineering student at PES, and the proud founder and entrepreneur behind Apna Meetup. Apna Meetup is a platform dedicated to conducting events, workshops, and hands-on sessions in colleges, aiming to bridge the gap between academics and real-world projects at no cost. This initiative is a testament to my passion for education and innovation, striving to provide students with the opportunities and skills they need to excel in the industry.

In addition to my entrepreneurial pursuits, I'm deeply involved in technology with a strong interest in web development, specializing in intricate data structures. As a committed web developer, I enjoy creating innovative online experiences and excel in solving complex challenges through logical reasoning, effective time management, and a calm demeanor, even under pressure.

Looking ahead, I'm eager to explore Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AIML) and Android development. I'm actively seeking mentors who can guide me in these areas and provide insights into the work culture. Mentorship, I believe, is crucial for gaining a genuine understanding of the industry.

I also leverage my SEO knowledge for optimizing online content. Outside the digital realm, I maintain a healthy lifestyle as a fitness enthusiast. Join me on this journey where I balance coding with creativity, striving for excellence in both the virtual and physical realms.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”

"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."

"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."
