More about Kate Fairhurst

For start ups and scale ups, it's all about growth. If you want to get past the painful stage of development, you need to be able to build your audiences and your revenues quickly and effectively. I help businesses with this challenge.

For much of my time this is as a co-founder of growth agency, GrowthMinds. We solve a core business challenge for scale ups: how to execute on the many technical components to digital marketing without the budget to hire huge teams of specialists. GrowthMinds plugs in as an external marketing department, wrapping our arms around everything from CMO strategy to campaign execution and data analysis.

The rest of my time is all about giving back. I mentor businesses on their growth strategies and help companies who need to find the right message, channel and tactics to succeed. From fintech scale ups to social enterprise start ups, I support leadership teams with advice and encouragement to get where they are going. It's lots of fun and is really quite rewarding too.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”

"eChai is playing biggest role in my personal and professional life together. Its a community where i meet like minded people to share idea and learn from their idea. Even while playing cricket i learn something and i implement something new from that learning. Its my entry point for building network in different countries where my base is not established yet. Personally my only fun activity day in a week is eChai cricket and social."

"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."
