Agenda:
The journey continues in San Mateo — with more stories, connections, and builders around the table.

​If you thrive on real conversations, unexpected collisions, and the kind of energy that only comes when passionate people gather in the same space, you don’t want to miss this.

What:

​eChai is hosting an evening gathering at Sama Cafe in San Mateo on Tuesday, April 15th, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM — designed for people who are building, thinking, exploring, or simply curious about the startup world.

​This isn’t your typical networking event. There’s no agenda, no presentations — just real conversations over coffee, surrounded by a community that values shared experiences and mutual growth.

Why:

​In a world full of noise and pitch decks, it’s refreshing to come together without expectations — to listen, exchange ideas, and build relationships that actually matter. These gatherings are about creating space for founders, operators, product folks, and investors to connect on a human level.

​You never know what can come out of a single conversation — a new perspective, a collaboration, or just the comfort of knowing someone else is in the same messy, beautiful phase of building.

How it works:

​Show up. Grab a coffee. Introduce yourself. Or don’t — let the conversations unfold naturally. The event is free to attend; you just pay for what you order at the cafe.
​Registering through eChai helps you see who else is attending, so you can reconnect with familiar faces or discover new ones you’d like to meet.


Who it’s for:

​Whether you’re a first-time founder, a repeat operator, an indie hacker, or someone simply exploring the space — you’ll find thoughtful, like-minded people here who are all navigating different parts of the same journey.

​If you’d like to join us or co-host a future gathering, feel free to DM me.
Let’s keep building — together.
