CEO, Calidad Infotech LLP

Samay Thakkar is CEO of Calidad Infotech LLP, a Software Quality Assurance company based out of Ahmedabad. He worked across different companies in Delhi NCR and Ahmedabad like Hughes Systique, Publicis Sapient and S&P Global before starting his own firm.

The inspiration to start a firm lies in analysing the software quality issues faced by the companies and to find out a way to solve those. There was a trend which was identified that the companies, especially startups, not focusing more on Quality Assurance due to various reasons such as budget constraints, multi-tasking teams, priority to development, lack of understanding etc.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"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."

"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 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.”
