Agenda:

Join us on June 26, Thursday, for an open, casual meetup of founders and startup folks in Austin.

The eChai Startup Social is a simple idea — show up, grab a coffee or your drink of choice, and connect with people who are building, investing, or exploring what’s next. There’s no agenda, no stage — just real conversations in a relaxed setting. You pay for what you order, and take away whatever the conversation brings.

You might meet early-stage founders, team members, investors, or operators — or simply someone on a similar journey. Every city brings its own mix, and every gathering is its own vibe.

What makes this special? It’s part of a global moment. On the same day, these socials will take place across 20 cities — from San Francisco to Singapore, Dublin to Dubai, Surat to Seattle.

It's a quiet but powerful signal: wherever you are, you’re not building alone.

Come by. Say hello. See what happens.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. 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.”

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”

"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."
