More about Monika Mehta
AI enthusiast || Problem solver || Generative AI || Digital health || Automation lover
I am a passionate entrepreneur working towards building the future of value-based healthcare. And here is why I decided to go for entrepreneurship instead of staying in a corporate job:
1. Inspired from my personal experience of Iosing a very close family member- first handedly experienced the gaps that exist in the healthcare system- decided to build a solution so that millions of others can potentially be saved.
2. I feel nothing can be more satisfying than building an organisation from scratch - that adrenaline rush is what keeps me going.
3. I have a strong urge to create something that lasts way beyond myself- want to grow it to scale and grow as a professional along with it.
Before starting up, I worked with some of the leading hospitals in Singapore as well as in collaboration with Oxford. Worked on exciting drugs for autoimmune diseases and cancer during my PhD at School of Medicine, NUS; in my last job at a top Pharma Company, I led various oncology projects in collaboration with Roche and Genentech.
During the last 10 years, I developed skills like leadership, teamwork, communication, and a goal-oriented growth mindset through various roles. I follow the simple principle- "fail fast, learn faster” :)

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"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."

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t 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.”

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."
