More about Gaurav Singhvi
Hi, I am Gaurav Singhvi, I am committed to the idea of making India a vibrant startup nation.ย
Over my 25+ years of experience contributing to consistently delivering incubation, innovation, and mentoring startup, my goal is to foster entrepreneurship through building community.
I have identified that business opportunities lie not only in just tier 1 cities but also in tier 2 and 3, as cultural connection and feeling of building community run even deeper.
Startups based in these cities often operate at the grassroots level and tackle more localized issues making them more viable for mass scale.ย
Many of the companies I am associated with actively support early-stage startups to help them grow fast by offering seed funding, business development, and community building.ย
We Founder Circle has successfully invested in 54+ startups in 18 months.
The services my group of companies provide are not limited to startups but also big corporates.
Our Group "๐๐ก๐ ๐ ๐ข๐ง๐๐ง๐๐ข๐๐ฅ ๐๐ฎ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ฆ๐๐ซ๐ค๐๐ญ" has served
โ 4,000+ satisfied SME & Corporate clients
โ In 65+ sectors
The group has expertise in the areas of Corporate Structuring, Fund Raising through Debt & Equity Syndication, SME IPO Planning & Listing, and Start-up Mentoring & Fund Raising.
My passion for building community doesn't end here.ย
Being the National Director, Executive Director & President-elect of various notable institutions that mentor and foster entrepreneurship play Catalyst's growth role.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
โeChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasnโt 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.โ
Rushabh Shah
Managing Partner - STIR Advisors
"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; itโs been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. Iโve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. เคธเคเคเคเฅเคเคงเฅเคตเค เคธเคเคตเคฆเคงเฅเคตเค โ Let us move together, speak together. Itโs not just a verse from the Rigveda โ itโs how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We donโt just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.
Jaydip Parikh
Chief Everything Officer at Tej SolPro
"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 - itโs one of the best for the Indian ecosystem. Along the way, Iโve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."
