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

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."

"I attended my first eChai event 3 yrs back, and no one knew me in the market. Over the next three years, eChai didn’t only help me with knowledge or networking, but it gave me an identity from being unknown to now being recognized by a group of inspirational entrepreneurs connected with eChai, who have been gracious enough to acknowledge me and Digipple."

"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."
