More about Shivam Tiwari

Before turning 24, built India's largest Campus placement platform with a reach of 1200+ colleges with the core being " Lack of access to opportunities but later realised that the larger problem is a huge gap between the World of Education and the Job market " 

which can only be solved through a Community based Exposure platform where anyone can experience " How is it to work in the company " before even applying to it.

Then What? We just close the last platform and started the new one ( Its not as easy as it sounds but ya, we made it )

Now, During the day, I talk to people, in colleges about " How to discover and select the right career options " 

At Night, I work on making discovering professional career options like marketing, sales, product, vc, analytics..... " as Cool and Fun as " dance, singing.........

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"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."

"eChai is playing biggest role in my personal and professional life together. Its a community where i meet like minded people to share idea and learn from their idea. Even while playing cricket i learn something and i implement something new from that learning. Its my entry point for building network in different countries where my base is not established yet. Personally my only fun activity day in a week is eChai cricket and social."
