More about Dinesh Agarwal
I am a research scientist turned entrepreneur. Although I loved every second of my life as a researcher, I always wanted to become an entrepreneur. I have over a decade long experience managing software development teams. I founded my first company when I was a Sophomore at school.
My area of expertise as a researcher was cloud computing with over 4 years of experience working with complex data sets, algorithms and applications. One of the application that I primarily worked on had the potential to employ thousands of computers in the cloud. We tested this with 100 computers and reduced the traditional processing time of 6 hours to less than 10 minutes. The application helps find closest safe rescue shelters in the event of a natural disaster such as hurricane or Tsunami.
My PhD dissertation on frameworks to convert your legacy software to cloud ready without a learning curve has been featured by HPC in the cloud, a leading journal on cloud computing. My papers have been published in reputed IEEE and ACM conferences.
I hold multiple patents in my field of research.

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."

"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."
