Yesterday, I attended the Ahmedabad Startup Summit hosted by eChai Ventures
It was a privilege to attend the event as various entrepreneurs shared their startup journeys and wisdom.
I want to thank Jatin Chaudhary for organizing this event and hosting the best entrepreneurs in the town.
Additionally, I enjoyed listening to my friend Pratik Patel entrepreneurial journey,
that has always inspired someone like me who respects taking risks and taking huge leaps.
His story is also inspiring for brands and companies struggling to launch public offerings.
Pratik Patel has been planning to launch an IPO for his brand ever since 2016 but has encountered many challenges on the way.
Now, after eight years (2023), he has finally reached the stage.
The challenges and journey he shared are commendable and I wish him all the best for his new adventure.
It takes perseverance, risk-taking ability, and constant work to be an entrepreneur,
And I greatly respect the entrepreneurial journeys shared at the Ahmedabad Startup Summit.
What are some of the qualities you admire most in entrepreneurs?

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"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."
Bhavin S Bhagat
Co-founder of Indiabizforsale and IBGrid, TiE Ahmedabad President
"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."
Viraj Rajani
Co-Founder, Digipple
"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."
