Association for Harnessing Innovation and Entrepreneurship (ASHINE)
92 slots booked.
Agenda:

Before the pitch decks and term sheets, there’s the fine print—cap tables, due diligence, entity structuring, and legal hygiene. This eChai meetup brings together startup lawyers, investors, and experienced founders to break down the must-dos every founder should know before they go out to raise funds.


Whether you’re preparing for your first raise or fixing gaps from your last round, this session will help you avoid costly legal oversights, understand compliance red flags, and get investor-ready with confidence.


Bring your questions, war stories, and term sheet worries—this will be an open, practical conversation for the community.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"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."

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”

"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."
