The eChai Effect - In Their Words

โ€œYou donโ€™t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up โ€ฆ and one day, you realize you did.โ€ Iโ€™ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, weโ€™ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts โ€” our venture builder โ€” eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isnโ€™t just a startup network. Itโ€™s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."
