More about Sharmin Ali

I am an entrepreneur, author and speaker. I have authored two books, the first one 'Y.O.U' has been announced a best-seller by the New Indian Express & the Oxford bookstores. My second book, titled 'How I was forced to become a staunch RACIST' has been recently published. After exiting from my first startup (Art-Right-Is productions), I have now ventured into an artificial intelligence based startup.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"After moving back from the USA, eChai became my go-to space to learn how the Indian startup ecosystem works. It offered direct exposure to startup thinking and a community that openly shares business insights. What stood out was how easy it was to connect, learn, and grow through real conversations. As we built our IT hardware rentals business, eChai helped us find our niche and refine our path. Proud and grateful to be part of this amazing community."

“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”
