Saul Rans

Director, The Strategy Builders

Saul Rans is a Director of The Strategy Builders, a boutique London-based advisory firm serving startups and small businesses. He founded the firm with his business partner earlier in 2023.
Previously, Saul spent 25 years in equity research analysing small, mid and large companies across multiple sectors, most recently at Morgan Stanley. He is also a Chartered Accountant and a graduate of Cambridge University.
The Strategy Builders provides advice across four pillars: business strategy, marketing strategy, financial control systems and productivity tools.
The firm aims to distinguish itself from other advisory firms in three ways: (1) Holistic: we build an all-round understanding of your business and your goals before designing advice (2) Listening: we listen to your needs and aspirations rather than imposing our own opinions (3) Bespoke: we provide advice tailored to your business – we never push copy-and-paste solutions.

"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."
