More about Payal Shah

I started working in Human Resources a bit by accident :)

I started my career as a Software Developer with Smithe Technologies Pvt. Ltd., and being a member of IT department, I was involved in developing software for the healthcare industry. We (I was part of the team) developed EMR (Electronic Medical Records) for one of our clients based in US. As my career progressed, I got a chance to lead the team, and the role itself called for conversing with client and understanding his requirements, distributing the work to the team members and helping them. 

Thanks to this role, it made me realize that I was a people’s person, someone who is gregarious and enjoys being around people. Also, my verbal communication skills helped me express my ideas clearly, precisely and confidently. Things were going ahead smoothly, but accidents happen :) And yes I got married, I went on a sabbatical for 6 months to balance my personal life. After which, I thought of taking up a different job, a job that helped me identify, develop, empower and facilitate people to work at their highest level. Opportunity struck and I started working as a People Manager at Digicorp.

In the last 13 years of my career with Digicorp, as a HR Manager, I have gained experience in talent acquisition, talent development, talent assessment, organization development and culture. I am at my best when exposed to a positive, creative and a dynamic environment. And thanks to Digicorp who has helped me evolve and work at par by providing a conducive environment.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."

“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."

"We found eChai to be a force multiplier throughout our startup journey. Through it, we connected with folks from DevX, Allevents, Plutomen, and more - many of whom became friends of IndiaBizForSale.com and even part of our clientele."
