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

“When 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!”

"After moving back from the USA, eChai became my go-to space to learn how the Indian startup ecosystem works. It offered direct exposure to startup thinking and a community that openly shares business insights. What stood out was how easy it was to connect, learn, and grow through real conversations. As we built our IT hardware rentals business, eChai helped us find our niche and refine our path. Proud and grateful to be part of this amazing community."

"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 - it’s one of the best for the Indian ecosystem. Along the way, I’ve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."
