Bringing the first program of The Startup Code, an open accelerator program by eChai Ventures and LegalWiz.in, designed for early-stage founders and aspiring entrepreneurs.

Building a startup starts with finding the right people. But finding the perfect co-founders and early employees can be tough. 

That’s why we’re bringing together founders who’ve been through it.

They’ll share what worked, the challenges they faced, and how they built their teams.

If you’re an early-stage or aspiring founder, this event is for you. You’ll get insights, a draft co-founders agreement, and a chance to connect with others looking for their ideal co-founders.

Join us for practical advice and meaningful connections.
