Had an awesome time putting together the eChai Ventures breakfast social in Pune along with Prabhjyot Singh Mann.
Here are some key takeaways that resonated with me:
Considering Co-founders:
Jimish Kapadia sir shed light on the importance of considering co-founders from a VC perspective. While going solo isn't necessarily a problem, having a co-founder can significantly enhance credibility, especially if the product or idea is promising.
Fundraising Essentials:
Pankhil Baunthiyal emphasized the need to address three fundamental questions before diving into fundraising: When to raise funds,
how to raise them, & how much to raise. These questions are crucial for strategic planning and negotiation, particularly in early-stage startups.
In addition to the invaluable insights gained, networking with fellow founders like Aryan Hinge from @Denner was truly enlightening. These interactions underscored the importance of building meaningful connections within the startup ecosystem.
Looking forward to sharing more insights from these enriching experiences and continuing to learn and grow alongside this incredible community!

I'll be hosting the special gathering in Pune on this Friday morning - eChai's Fundraising Social - focused on bringing together a small group of startup founders and supporters.
This get-together is all about having honest and open talks with each other, sharing our stories of trying to raise funds, the ups and downs, and everything in between.
