Pranav Kashyap

Product Manager @UiPath, Seasonal Investor

Bangalore

As a forward-thinking investor,I brings a unique blend of technical expertise, business acumen, and a passion for fostering innovation. With over a half decade of experience in the fields of automation, process mining, and technology-driven solutions, I am dedicated to identifying and nurturing high-potential startups that are poised to disrupt industries and drive sustainable growth.

My journey began in the technology sector, where I quickly rose to prominence as a leader in process automation and digital transformation. Having worked extensively with tools such as UiPath and leading automation initiatives for companies across diverse industries, I developed a deep understanding of how technology can be leveraged to optimize processes, reduce costs, and create new revenue streams. This background gives me a strong foundation to evaluate startups that are innovating in areas such as AI, automation, and enterprise solutions.

Over the years, I transitioned from being a technology leader to a strategic investor. My focus now lies in supporting founders who are passionate about using technology to solve real-world problems. Whether it’s investing in a cutting-edge SaaS platform, a renewable energy initiative, or a next-generation automation tool, I looks for startups that not only have the potential for high returns but also align with his values of long-term sustainability and societal impact.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."

"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."

Co-Founder, Digipple

"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.
