More about Siddharth Deshmukh

A technologist, business leader, and philanthropist. I believe in solving simple but significant problems of Small Businesses (I don't care if those problems are big problems for VCs).

Technology geek who love to speak a simple language that Small Business Owners can understand. Making things simple is my passion, and I love to lead a simple life. Living happily with my lovely wife, she is my biggest critic but also a woman behind all my success.

Story teller and also love to hear incredible stories of entrepreneurs. I am not an advisor but happy to share my experience and thoughts. I love to talk about product development, product management, and marketing. Just connect with me and invite me for a cup of tea (I don't like coffee) or beer will also do!

Before Shimbi Labs, I founded the web hosting company ASK4Host.com in 2000. 

I love public speaking and will be happy to accept your invitation to speak at events. I think my years of experience as an entrepreneur may inspire the younger generation.

I feel fortunate to get to connect with so many extraordinary people every day and learn so many new things from them. MyNotes is my personal blog, where I will be sharing what I’m learning. I will also be writing about technology, leadership, startup, product development and occasionally on life as I see.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“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.”

"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."

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