About

Josh Talks is coming to Ahmedabad in association with Facebook.The day-long conference cuts across genres, bringing you a wide narrative on India. We dive into history, exploring India’s 2600-yr tradition of coins; see how Shyam Bedekar’s remarkable invention is enabling him and his wife to create social impact across India and beyond; experience a young woman’s drive to bring textbook science theories to life for children; and take a journey to the dark depths of coal mining and its bitter consequences for our own people. Uplifting stories and thought-provoking experiences come together to take you on a roller coaster journey of ideas. Here is the speaker lineup of Josh Talks Ahmedabad 2017 : -Aruna Chandrashekhar is a journalist and researcher who studied the human rights and environmental impact of coal mining in Jharkhand and Chhatisgarh for 3 years. She published an Amnesty International report on her findings. -Indu Harikumar is an artist who created an art project called 100 Indian Tinder Tales. The campaign went viral on social media, and as people shared their tinder experiences, she converted them into illustrations. So, what's India's experience on Tinder? Indu will tell us... -Aditi Gupta wants to change our cultural attitude to menstruation. Why is it a taboo subject? She and her partner Tuhin Paul took a unique approach to educating teen and pre-teen girls about menstruation. They created a comic called Menstrupedia that answers questions and busts myths. It's traveled India and been translated into multiple languages. -Monica Yadav with Respire Experiential Learning,brings science theory to life for children. In fact, was science ever meant to stay within the confines of textbooks? How about involving children in building the theories into real life working models - that's Monica's big idea. As she encourages children to get creative with science, the sparks of imagination begin to fly. -Dr Tejas Naik is known in the medical community as a celebrated pediatric surgeon. For the rest of the world, however, he is a traveler and collector with an extraordinary fascination for coins, artefacts, symbols, and relics from times past. His home is a museum, and a work of art. In its shelves and cases and corners, it contains 100 million years of world history. All it takes to book a tour and a wonderful host is a phone call. - Shyam Bedekar is an entrepreneur who is using excellent business management and a science invention to transform the menstrual health of rural women in Gujarat.

Founders here come to know a few brands well.

Those are eChai’s partner brands. Over a year, founders across the network learn their names and their work, and when somebody asks around for what they do, theirs is the name that comes up.

What a year inside eChai does for your brand.

Each partnership comes with presence across eChai, introductions to the right founders, and a team that stays involved through the year. And each one is shaped around what the brand wants out of it.

Who you meet

Founders learn your name, then your work.

Over the year they keep running into you: at the gatherings, in the series, on the pages they read through the week. So when one of them needs what you do, they come straight to you.
We introduce you to the people you want to reach.

After seventeen years of gatherings we know who has built what, and who works with whom. Tell us who you are after, or we come to you when the right person shows up, with your story and why you two should talk.
You are invited to the gatherings that fit.

Open houses, Demo Days, the AI sessions, FailCode, the curated socials and the smaller dinners, some of them by invitation. When one fits what you do and who you want to meet, you are on the list.

What we do with you

We sit down with you on your story, your brand and your business.

One to one, more than once in the year. We have heard a few thousand founders, so you hear fairly quickly what is working, what is not, and what we would change first.
We take your team through what AI changed for us.

Almost everything eChai builds now has AI in the workflow. We go through what we tried, what worked and what wasted our time, and then connect you to founders further along than us.
You can ask us anything, whenever it comes up.

Every week we hear what founders are building, what they recommend to each other and what they have moved on from. Twice a year we go through what it means for your category. In between we answer, or find a founder who can.

Where your name runs

Your mark comes round under every page on eChai.

The wall of partner brands under the site's pages draws a different ten each time, so yours comes round on the city pages, the event pages and the notes founders read, all year. Your page on echai.ventures stays up after it, and your name runs through our LinkedIn, Instagram and X.
The blue tick puts you first wherever founders are listed.

The tick and your company's mark sit beside your name across eChai, and lists of founders put the blue ticks first: your city's people, the directory, and the roster of every gathering you go to, after its hosts and speakers.
Your company carries its mark on the Startup Grid.

Where your company is on a city's map of its startups, it is drawn by your mark rather than a dot, opens on your own words and pictures, and is a stop on the tour the map offers of its partner brands.
You write and speak here under your own name.

You come into the series we run online (How Founders Use AI, the founder conversations, the long reads) where you have something real to say, and you write in Founder Notes, where founders across our cities write about what they are building.

The brands working with us.

How it works.

A partnership is for growth stage founders who want to come in as a partner brand, and it runs one year at a time. The brand fee for the year is paid to eChai. An affiliate share runs alongside it, linked to the outcomes we drive together. Both carry GST.

Everything a partnership comes with
