🚀 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

"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."
