More about Vinod Ramaswamy
Art, it is subjective, provocative, and deeply personal.
It is the ability to translate a story, to connect and transport the viewer into the mind of an artist to gain an alternative perspective that fascinates me and has led me to the art world, where I truly belong.
I am thankful to all artists, curators, collectors, and galleries who have always encouraged me to develop my own approach. I learn most from interacting with artists in their creative space, each is unique and offers insight into how they think, their passions, and their influence. I believe that artists feel more comfortable speaking and sharing their ideas when they are in their studio talking about their process.
I’ve been fortunate to travel, to experience museums, galleries, and exhibitions to learn the emerging trends and styles. This allows deeper appreciation and encourages the art community both local and international to connect with me. I speak 6 local languages fluently which has provided an opportunity to artists from the remotest places to exhibit their works.
The Art Bengaluru festival is special, as a member of the curatorial team, I am delighted that it has become a reputed art festival in Bengaluru, India. I have collaborated with various institutions like New Acropolis, Lasvit, Alliance Française de Bangalore, the Italian Embassy, the Embassy of Israel, and many others. In addition to this, I have worked with NGOs like Parikrama Foundation and Akshaya Patra Foundation to encourage creativity in children. I was actively involved in various commissioning projects which also include Sheraton Grand, Whitefield.
At present, I am building more connections in the art world to explore possibilities to work with a reputed gallery or museum in India and outside.
I seek new to grow my network, I recently joined Clubhouse which allows me real-time access to support the Artists who are creating NFT artwork, collectors, traders, and industry specialists. This technology has the potential to bring a revolutionary change in the Indian Art scene and its opening doors to a new generation of creators and collectors across the planet.

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."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."

"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."
