Last Min Announcement! 📢

It's eChai Startup Demo Day every last Saturday, but this month was a bit of a rollercoaster.

Normally, I'd be weeks ahead, sorting out the venue, locking down slots, and maybe even convincing someone cool to speak. But life happened, and I got swamped with my own stuff. 😅

Just when I thought, "Uh-oh, what now?

Enter Cynthia, our superhero! Just when things seemed dicey, she swooped in, offering not just a venue but also the bonus of bringing in some awesome investors 🤩

Golden ticket vibes, right? 🎟️

Now, we've got the venue locked, and the excitement is building! Oh, and if you're itching to pitch your startup, we've got 2 slots waiting for you!

If you're hearing about eChai Startup Demo Day for the first, here is the small heads up 👇🏻 

eChai Startup Demo Day is not your average event; it's where cool ideas collide, connections spark, and startups get their cheer squad. 🎉 Founders, it's your spot to validate ideas, MVPs, and business models with a community that's got your back.

Join us for an evening of dreams turning into reality. Slide into my DMs if you're ready to pitch – let's make this Demo Day YOUR moment! 💪🏻

Special thanks to our venue partner - Sevika Tech.

Time : 4:00 - 6 :00 PM

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"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."

“You don’t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up … and one day, you realize you did.” I’ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, we’ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts — our venture builder — eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isn’t just a startup network. It’s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."

"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."
