Just back from 'Demo Day' organized by eChai Ventures.🎢

Picture this: it's like speed dating for entrepreneurs – you're not there to find a date, but to scout the future of your business!

The event was a blend of startups, businesses, and investors.

New ventures had their moment in the spotlight, sharing their visions and getting early feedback – minus the high-pressure environment of a judging panel.

Reflecting on the day, here's what stood out:

💡It was a fantastic opportunity for new startups to get valuable insights and possibly catch an investor’s eye.
đź’ˇFor seasoned entrepreneurs, it was a space rich in networking opportunities, where business cards were exchanged as eagerly as ideas.
đź’ˇThe inclusivity was notable: we had a spectrum of attendees from budding entrepreneurs to business experts.

This wasn't just about swapping greetings and LinkedIn profiles.

It was about creating meaningful connections that could steer your business towards exciting new horizons.

A huge shoutout to Nihal Ahamed M and Kirithiga Sundaramoorthy for organizing such an insightful event.

Can't wait for the next one!✨

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“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 is playing biggest role in my personal and professional life together. Its a community where i meet like minded people to share idea and learn from their idea. Even while playing cricket i learn something and i implement something new from that learning. Its my entry point for building network in different countries where my base is not established yet. Personally my only fun activity day in a week is eChai cricket and social."

"We found eChai to be a force multiplier throughout our startup journey. Through it, we connected with folks from DevX, Allevents, Plutomen, and more - many of whom became friends of IndiaBizForSale.com and even part of our clientele."
