Purvi Tanwani

Co-founder/Director at Anahat For Change Foundation

I'm a gender justice advocate, social entrepreneur, and data strategist, passionate about driving systemic change. I co-founded Anahat to empower marginalized communities through initiatives like Project Unnati and Football for HER, which tackle menstrual equity, economic independence, and gender-based violence. With a background in data research and a former role at KPMG, I combine analytical depth with grassroots innovation. As a certified gender and sexuality educator, I've been recognized nationally and internationally for using gender-transformative approaches to shift harmful norms. My vision is bold yet rooted—to reach 5 million women and girls by 2030, fostering dignity, equity, and enduring change.

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."

"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."

"eChai is playing biggest role in my personal and professional life together. Its a community where i meet like minded people to share idea and learn from their idea. Even while playing cricket i learn something and i implement something new from that learning. Its my entry point for building network in different countries where my base is not established yet. Personally my only fun activity day in a week is eChai cricket and social."
