Pritesh Lakhani

Co Founder, Pneucons

With over nine years of experience in the engineering trade industry, I have developed a deep expertise in business negotiation, development, and analysis. As the co-founder and CEO of Pneucons, I am leading the transformation of the industrial B2B landscape in India, creating a game-changing platform that enables businesses to connect and trade with transparency, efficiency, and profitability.

Pneucons is a transaction-based open platform that caters specifically to the unique needs of the industrial engineering sector, fostering a thriving ecosystem where every buyer is a seller and vice versa. Our vision is to empower SMEs and MSMEs to overcome trade credit trust deficits, streamline sourcing, and scale their operations like never before. Our key value proposition is to provide sellers with unparalleled access to new business with no udhaari and zero payment follow-ups, and to offer buyers average cash discounts of 10-15% compared to offline buying and other platforms, along with instant indenting and hassle-free experiences. Our differentiator is to integrate channel and retail sales, bridge the gap between MSMEs and SMEs, and equip businesses with the right tools to succeed.

I am passionate about collaborating with like-minded individuals, businesses, and industry professionals who share our vision of revolutionizing the industrial B2B marketplace. I welcome partnership opportunities, speaking engagements, and idea exchanges to unlock the true potential of SMEs and MSMEs in the digital era. Let's connect and make a difference together.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"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."

“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."

"We found eChai to be a force multiplier throughout our startup journey. Through it, we connected with folks from DevX, Allevents, Plutomen, and more - many of whom became friends of IndiaBizForSale.com and even part of our clientele."
