More about Karan Shah
Digital Dreamer: Building Tomorrow, Today | Product Engineering | Digital Transformation
I'm a technophile and have spent close to a decade working in tech with startups and enterprises. Having worked with a myriad of technologies ranging from UNIX Shell Scripts, PL/SQL, Java, and QlikView to name a few, I have developed a unique way of approaching problems.
This problem-solving attitude has helped me help others in many ways. Throughout my journey of ~5 years with SoluteLabs, I've engaged with many startups, individuals and enterprises from whom I've collectively broadened my thinking and vastly improved my people and technical skills.
As a startup founder, I was also forced to move out of my comfort zone and invest in marketing skills which eventually grew over me, and I took on the role of Director of Sales and Marketing.
While I'm not at work, I am usually with my beautiful daughter who is the best thing that ever happened to me. I am curious by nature and thus followed the love to travel, read, write, photograph and cook.
I love meeting new people, and I'm always on the lookout for the right team players. So, if you think you would like to work with me or for me, drop me an email. I will be happy to connect!

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"I have evolved from role of Community Builder to Startup Consultant to Startup Ecosystem Enabler to Angel Investor and now launching a Venture Studio and eChai has been a catalyst in my overall journey as Startup Evangelist since 13 years."
Mehul Shah
Co-Founder at Counselvise & Ivy Growth
“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."

"eChai has been a game changer in my journey. It connected me with real people, real support and real opportunities. From building HMMBiz to launching Mindalcove, eChai has played a key role at every step. Grateful to be part of a community that truly believes in growing together."
