🚀 Inspired by the unwavering resilience of Indian founders and the boundless energy of Bangalore's startup ecosystem! 💪 Exciting to witness engineers, designers, bankers, and innovators alike, all fueled by the dream of launching their own startups in yesterday's eChai Ventures Demo day and fireside chat hosted by Puneeth Suraana .

💡 Ideation is at its peak much higher than 2007. Being a Startup Founder myself, I so much relate to the potential mistakes an emerging founder can avoid fundraising and pitching to VCs. I am grateful for the opportunity to connect, learn and exchange ideas with these fellow enthusiasts.

🌆 Bangalore, a melting pot of talent and ambition, continues to be the heartbeat of India's startup revolution. Looking forward to continued collaboration and impact in the space through my learnings from Tinkerly and via platform of Warmup Ventures

"If there’s one phrase that sums up my journey, it’s truly ‘The eChai Effect.’ Six years ago, I simply walked into my first eChai event, not knowing what to expect. The honest conversations, energy, and inspiration from founders and entrepreneurs struck a chord within me. That eChai spark became the catalyst for everything to follow. I proudly say: my entrepreneurship journey started—and keeps evolving—because of eChai. Redicine Medsol’s story is integrally linked to this community. I’ve gained so much, not just as a founder but as a forever volunteer and grateful member of the eChai family. With all my heart, thank you Jatin Bhai and everyone at eChai for shaping, guiding, and supporting my dreams. The eChai Effect will always be a part of my story."
