The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai isnโ€™t just a startup community โ€ฆ itโ€™s a mindset .ย eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. Itโ€™s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. Iโ€™ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here โ€” people who genuinely want to see you succeed.ย Itโ€™s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. Iโ€™ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders donโ€™t just grow businesses โ€” they grow together."

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€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."
