"I attended my first eChai event 3 yrs back, and no one knew me in the market. Over the next three years, eChai didnโ€™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."
