Cover for AI x Marketing: The New Growth Formula for Startups - Ahmedabad Edition

AI x Marketing: The New Growth Formula for Startups - Ahmedabad Edition

AI is no longer a side tool — it’s becoming the backbone of how modern startups market, scale, and grow.
At this eChai panel, founders and marketing leaders will share how they’re integrating AI into real-world strategy — from crafting campaigns and content to automating operations and optimizing spend.
The conversation will go behind the scenes of fast-moving startups to uncover what’s working, what’s evolving, and how AI is quietly reshaping the role of marketing itself.
Designed for startup builders navigating growth in the age of intelligent tools.
