More about Hunny Bhagchandani

I, Hunny Bhagchandani, Founder of TorchIt, social innovator share a keen sense to bring change in the society by empowering the differently abled community with the Power of Independence. 

Growing up in a modern Sindhi business family in Ahmedabad, I acquired the traits of being compassionate while also bringing economics to everything where if a thing is not effective and sustainable, it wouldn’t survive the test of time. 

I pursued my Bachelors in Industrial Engineering from Pandit Deendayal Petroleum University (PDPU), India. I have to my credit Leadership Innovation fellowship from the Royal Academy of Engineering, UK; also, fellow at Enabling Toys, MIT Media Lab, US. 

The idea behind TorchIt remains to bring innovative products for Differently Abled community, so they can lead their lives independently.

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."
