Soumyadip Chowdhury

Founder

Lets get started with my name which is Soumyadip . As you all now already know my name . So now let's dive into the main concern: " Telling about myself ".
I used to study in NIFT (Bangalore) but took a drop to follow my heart's desire towards building this startup and going against the tide with my family as pillar and support.
So how this fashion ka keeda became my reality,
I am hailing from a unorganised apparel manufacturing family background and as I grew tons of fabric wastes in our warehouses and piles of leftover finished garment stocks in shop was a growing concern for . But I got no clear idea then what courses can help me solve that . So in class 9 a sudden incident happened from where I got to know the terms of Indian fashion industry such as fashion design and NIFT. So from there I got a spike of interest towards this course in a hope that there will be talks about sustainability and futuristic fashion . I also got a digital graphic design course in between, which resulted in me always connecting fashion and digital design and technology. And long story short so after 2 years perseverance after my 12th grade I finally got into NIFT but there I couldn't connect with what I was planning to aim since childhood. So this decision to drop college and learn external 3D fashion and AI courses which I find more close towards my goals and startup idea. And from there this jump to create brand which will convert a niche area of society into a circular economy cycle using well proven technological marvels like DPPs which would eventually cause an innovative global fashion revolution on a wavy scale across the globe .

"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.

"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."
