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

"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."

โ€œI have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, Iโ€™ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - Iโ€™ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. Itโ€™s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldnโ€™t have been possible without eChai.โ€

โ€œWhen 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!โ€
