Every Founder has a story that is filled with roller coaster rides, adventure, ups, downs and a few directions which you never knew existed. Deepak Ghaisas joins us in this session of Founder’s Speak to narrate the story of I-flex, a B2B tech company he co-founded which had a valuation of 4.5 Billion dollars. We will get an insight into the challenges he faced, milestones he conquered, successes he enjoyed and what were the most important things that fuelled his company's growth.

Deepak is a qualified Chartered Accountant, Cost Accountant, and Company Secretary. He began his career with Radhakrishna Group and Tata Unisys. After that, he had a brief stint in the food industry. At the end of which, he started on his journey with I-flex in 1993. It is India's first product-oriented software company to succeed globally. Most popularly known for its banking software called Flex cube which is still a preferred tool all across the world, I- flex made its mark on the BFSI sector over 3 decades.

Deepak is currently the chairman of the Gencoval group of companies that are working with some cutting edge technologies in the field of stem cell banking and other innovative healthcare services. He is also a part of the core management of a VC firm called Exfinity venture partners which manages a corpus of more than 100cr rupees. Some areas of interest for Exfinity include Mobility, Cloud, Software-defined hardware, IoT, Analytics, AI, etc
Tech startup founders must definitely attend this session to get an overview of what goes into building a legacy.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“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."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
