Agenda:

National Startup Day deserves something real. Join eChai Ventures and IIMA Ventures in Ahmedabad on January 16, from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm, for an evening of sharp ideas, real insights, and startup energy. Founders, investors, and curious minds - this is where it happens.


We’re keeping it simple: founders who’ve built, scaled, and learned will share what works (and what doesn’t). A panel with investors will cut through the noise and get to the heart of fundraising. Just honest conversations about what it takes to grow.


And then, the startups. Fresh ideas. Bold pitches. This showcase is about founders putting their work out there. If you’re into real connections and sharp takeaways, show up. It’s free, open for everyone, and all about building something that lasts.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"We found eChai to be a force multiplier throughout our startup journey. Through it, we connected with folks from DevX, Allevents, Plutomen, and more - many of whom became friends of IndiaBizForSale.com and even part of our clientele."

"At DevX.Work, we’ve greatly benefited from our association with eChai. Their events and networking forums have connected us with high-potential startups, ecosystem leaders, and innovation-driven professionals — many of whom have become valuable partners, collaborators, and even clients. What stands out most is the openness and accessibility of the community — whether you're an early-stage founder or an experienced entrepreneur, eChai provides a welcoming space to learn, collaborate, and grow. It's more than just a network — it's a catalyst for real, collaborative growth. We’re proud to be part of the eChai community. Highly recommended for any organization aiming to grow within the startup space."

"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. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."
