Viraj Chapani

Founder and CEO of kathiyawadi Design

કેમ છો બધા !!

👋 Hi, I'm Viraj Chapani — Founder & CEO of Kathiyawadi Design, a creative startup based in Ahmedabad, India.

💡 I’m passionate about design, innovation, and entrepreneurship, and I’m on a mission to build one of the most impactful design agencies in India, and eventually, the world. From graphics and UI/UX to web design and videos, we bring bold ideas to life with a blend of creativity and strategy.

🚀 I'm inspired by future-forward trends like AI, AR, and the Metaverse, and I believe that great design isn’t just about visuals — it’s about solving real problems and telling meaningful stories.

📈 With 6K+ LinkedIn connections and growing, I thrive on building valuable relationships, staying plugged into the startup scene, and always learning from the best.

🧠 Big believer in:

- Dreaming big
- Moving fast
- Staying grounded

Let’s build the future, one creative idea at a time.

"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."

These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”
