Vidya Patil
Founder, Talentnauts
I began my journey in the IT industry as an Executive Assistant in 2015 at a small startup, where I was involved in day-to-day operations. This fast-paced environment sparked my interest in the corporate world, leading me to start my own company, Yuyutsu Systems, which served the telecom sector. During this venture, I managed a sales team of five and gained firsthand experience in the sales cycle and client management.
Currently, I'm involved in recruitment operations at Talentnauts. I'm ambitious, enjoy taking on challenges, and use a practical approach to solve problems.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"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."
Pankaj Bhimani
Founder, 58miles
"I have evolved from role of Community Builder to Startup Consultant to Startup Ecosystem Enabler to Angel Investor and now launching a Venture Studio and eChai has been a catalyst in my overall journey as Startup Evangelist since 13 years."
Mehul Shah
Co-Founder at Counselvise & Ivy Growth
"The eChai platform has been super valuable for me - it has helped me gain a deeper understanding of domains in the startup and tech ecosystem. What stands out most is the celebration of knowledge, professional growth, and entrepreneurship - it’s one of the best for the Indian ecosystem. Along the way, I’ve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."
