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
"If there’s one phrase that sums up my journey, it’s truly ‘The eChai Effect.’ Six years ago, I simply walked into my first eChai event, not knowing what to expect. The honest conversations, energy, and inspiration from founders and entrepreneurs struck a chord within me. That eChai spark became the catalyst for everything to follow. I proudly say: my entrepreneurship journey started—and keeps evolving—because of eChai. Redicine Medsol’s story is integrally linked to this community. I’ve gained so much, not just as a founder but as a forever volunteer and grateful member of the eChai family. With all my heart, thank you Jatin Bhai and everyone at eChai for shaping, guiding, and supporting my dreams. The eChai Effect will always be a part of my story."

"The eChai platform has been super valuable for me - it has helped me gain a deeper understanding of domains in the startup and tech ecosystem. What stands out most is the celebration of knowledge, professional growth, and entrepreneurship - it’s one of the best for the Indian ecosystem. Along the way, I’ve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."

“You don’t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up … and one day, you realize you did.” I’ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, we’ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts — our venture builder — eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isn’t just a startup network. It’s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."
