More about Siddhant Agarwal

Currently working as Developer Relations Lead with Open Financial Technologies, Asia’s first neobanking platform for SMEs and startups. I am one of ACM’s Distinguished Speakers among 200+ speakers worldwide and 20+ speakers in India. A design thinker at heart, I love working with startups and helping them scale in UX and improve their designs.

Previously worked as Program Coordinator with the Developer Relations team at Google and had led Developer Student Clubs program, TensorFlow User Groups, Google Developer Experts and Google Developer Groups program in India. I had also designed, launched and led the “Build for Digital India” initiative in 2019 in collaboration with the Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology, Govt. of India which witnessed 7K+ students participating and building solutions that “Solve for India”. 

With over 6 years of industry experience, I have found my passion in building and driving ed-tech initiatives, community building, design innovation, startup ecosystem and building for the next billion users. For my contributions in community building, I was also nominated as one of the finalists of CMX Community Industry Awards 2021 for "Community Professional of the Year for a Developer Relations Community" and "Community Professional of the Year" categories. Being an avid public speaker, I have spoken at more than 200+ national and international forums impacting more than 70K students/developers/individuals in the last 5+ years.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"At DevX.Work, we’ve greatly benefited from our association with eChai. Their events and networking forums have connected us with high-potential startups, ecosystem leaders, and innovation-driven professionals — many of whom have become valuable partners, collaborators, and even clients. What stands out most is the openness and accessibility of the community — whether you're an early-stage founder or an experienced entrepreneur, eChai provides a welcoming space to learn, collaborate, and grow. It's more than just a network — it's a catalyst for real, collaborative growth. We’re proud to be part of the eChai community. Highly recommended for any organization aiming to grow within the startup space."

“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!”

"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."
