More about Kathan Desai
Founder & COO at BugBase
BugBase is the world's first continuous vulnerability assessment platform enabling companies to implement bug bounty programs into their existing SDLC to identify critical business logic and zero day flaws that traditional methods cannot identify due to lack of context.
I identify real-world issues and build products to resolve them using cutting-edge technology and effective business strategies. I effectively collaborate with teams to scale, build, and grow businesses.
Throughout my career, I have held various positions where I have learned about product management, product development, business and growth strategies, B2B marketing and sales, and team building.
My personal and professional experiences have taught me the following characteristics about myself:
1. I am capable of developing and implementing business strategies.
2. I am capable of leading and motivating large teams of people working in various domains.
3. I am not afraid to try new things.
4. I learn from my mistakes and grow as a person as a result of them.
5. I enjoy meeting new people and learning about their lives.
Please contact me if you want to talk about startups, technology, team building, or product development.

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
"If there’s one phrase that sums up my journey, it’s truly ‘The eChai Effect.’ Six years ago, I simply walked into my first eChai event, not knowing what to expect. The honest conversations, energy, and inspiration from founders and entrepreneurs struck a chord within me. That eChai spark became the catalyst for everything to follow. I proudly say: my entrepreneurship journey started—and keeps evolving—because of eChai. Redicine Medsol’s story is integrally linked to this community. I’ve gained so much, not just as a founder but as a forever volunteer and grateful member of the eChai family. With all my heart, thank you Jatin Bhai and everyone at eChai for shaping, guiding, and supporting my dreams. The eChai Effect will always be a part of my story."
Kush Prajapati
Founder, Redicine Medsol
"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s 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. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.
