Ram Kordale

Ex-VP Samsung, Yahoo, Founder, RapidKen.AI

Drinking the AI kool-aid and arrogance of his education, Ram left his successful VP @ Samsung position with a vision of providing education to the under privileged masses. Soon, he realized the limitations of technology in achieving his vision. While biding for time, he started pivoting to put the the world's most dense knowledge graph that he and his team created using NLP based AI to multiple solutions.

While he understands how to lead 250+ person, multi continent, multi disciplined people, product and business managers in large companies, he has been humbled by his inability to get these right in his startup for a while.

The ducks are finally lining up as he sees businesses beginning to see value in RapidKen.AI's offerings. RapidKen now leverages the most dense knowledge graph to enhance user engagement with its customers' content, resulting in a remarkable boost of 3 to 7 times in user interaction.

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."

"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."

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."
