More about Disha Parekh

I have diverse experience across Risk Advisory, Private Banking, HR Consulting, Learning & Development and Research & Analytics in large multinational organisations like Ernst & Young and HSBC. Along the way I had the opportunity to work with multiple cross-functional, cross cultural teams and execute large international deliverables.

I am currently building 1HR.market - a tech enabled curated HR Marketplace for on-demand procurement of HR services and products. We are the future of HR outsourcing - a rising trend expedited by the distributed workforce of the "new normal". 

We are committed towards enabling HR teams to be more agile and effective. We are curating a single, multi geography marketplace that provides the full spectrum of HR offerings to businesses across the globe. 

We offer solutions around Talent Management, D&I, Employee Engagement, Learning and Development, HR Analytics, Gamification, R&R, CompBen, HR Policy & Compliance, HR Operations & Admin, CHRO on demand, Startup HR Toolkit and other HR innovations through a community of HR practitioners, independent HR consultants, HR boutique firms and HR Startups.

For our supply side partners, we create a level playing field which gives them an opportunity to compete and win based on the merits of proven performance, expertise, and passion.

Signing up on our website is completely free! If you encounter any issues with profile or notice something unusual, please don't hesitate to report it to us. We're here to help ensure a smooth and secure experience.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“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.”

"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."

“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”
