Agenda:


This is part of The Startup Code, an open accelerator program by eChai Ventures and LegalWiz.in, designed for early-stage founders and aspiring entrepreneurs.

While bootstrapping can be a great way to grow your startup, understanding the ins and outs of fundraising is crucial for those considering external capital. This AMA (Ask Me Anything) session brings together venture capitalists and angel investors who have supported successful startups.


This is your chance to ask questions and learn directly from the experts about what it takes to secure funding. Whether you're exploring your options or preparing for your first funding round, this session will provide you with valuable insights into the fundraising process.


Join us to gain a deeper understanding of fundraising, and connect with other founders who are exploring their paths to growth.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work.ย As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction.ย Over the years, it became my window to the startup world โ€” and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."

"If thereโ€™s one phrase that sums up my journey, itโ€™s truly โ€˜The eChai Effect.โ€™ Six years ago, I simply walked into my first eChai event, not knowing what to expect. The honest conversations, energy, and inspiration from founders and entrepreneurs struck a chord within me. That eChai spark became the catalyst for everything to follow. I proudly say: my entrepreneurship journey startedโ€”and keeps evolvingโ€”because of eChai. Redicine Medsolโ€™s story is integrally linked to this community. Iโ€™ve gained so much, not just as a founder but as a forever volunteer and grateful member of the eChai family. With all my heart, thank you Jatin Bhai and everyone at eChai for shaping, guiding, and supporting my dreams. The eChai Effect will always be a part of my story."

"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 - itโ€™s one of the best for the Indian ecosystem. Along the way, Iโ€™ve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."
