More about Pauline Laravoire
"What is a career if not meaningful and impactful?"
Even before finalising my master’s degree in Sustainability and Social Innovation from HEC Paris, I had developed an expertise in strategy consulting, social entrepreneurship and social impact assessment, especially as the co-founder of non-profit AQWA, which supports social enterprises and NGOs through social impact assessment studies.
In 2018, I moved to Kolkata, India, where I joined educational conglomerate Techno India Group, as Sustainability Director. In this position, I am striving to create more learning and professional opportunities for students in the sustainability sector, especially through our network-based venture Y-East.
I have developed an expertise and passion for building communities towards sustainability, being notably associated with the following community-based ventures: Y-East, Youth for Sustainability India Alliance and Learning Planet by CRI, France.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"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."

Founder, MyCPE One
"I attended my first eChai event 3 yrs back, and no one knew me in the market. Over the next three years, eChai didn’t only help me with knowledge or networking, but it gave me an identity from being unknown to now being recognized by a group of inspirational entrepreneurs connected with eChai, who have been gracious enough to acknowledge me and Digipple."

Co-Founder, Digipple
“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!”
