eChai Startup Demo Day is happening in Nagpur this week, all in person, with 18 founders registered. The next is on 31 October, all in person, with 10 cities confirmed and 562 founders registered. We want to bring it to 82 more cities in India too: any city that reaches 20 interested founders is on. See your city

eChai Startup Demo Day

Every month, early-stage founders present what they are building to the founders in their own city, in person, and get feedback on it that day. Every demo then lives on this page.

Where and when

  1. Held Saturday 29 August Pune and Bengaluru 170 registered

How it works

Founders apply with what they are building, from the Demo Day page in their city. Every application gets one of two answers.

On stage

A handful of founders per city present on the day, live product on screen. Each city's host sets that lineup, and those demos are marked "On stage" below.

Listed here

The stage holds far fewer founders than apply, so most approved demos live here instead, where the whole network can see them.

Applying takes a line on what you are building and a link. We read every one and email you which of the two it is.
