Happened on August 20, Saturday, 2016

Victor Menezes Convention Center
Event Details:

Smashup is an un-conference based on the concept of peer learning from contemporaries. It has been designed as a platform for the startup + by the startup. Which means, #TiESmashup will be devoid of:

a. Big Boys: we invite only early stage entrepreneurs to speak, no VCs no big boy talks

b. 50,000 feet overviews: early stage entrepreneurs tend to give you a 2,000 ft overview

c. Presentations/Gyan: We focus on story telling format with Startup Tales

d. NO Suits: Yes, we take this very seriously to maintain the ambience and energy

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"I have evolved from role of Community Builder to Startup Consultant to Startup Ecosystem Enabler to Angel Investor and now launching a Venture Studio and eChai has been a catalyst in my overall journey as Startup Evangelist since 13 years."

"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."

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."
