This past Saturday, I had breakfast with 4 amazing founders and snagged two leads for my own #MicroSaaS!π€©
In a small, relaxed setting like a cafe, conversations become incredibly focused and insightful.
Here's why I loved it ππ»
β Deep Dives: Each founder had the chance to delve into their product and their current challenges. It was a true exchange of ideas and experiences.
β Candid Connections: Unlike the usual "pitch perfect" environment, the breakfast table fostered open dialogue. Everyone felt comfortable sharing honestly, without fear of judgment.
This "Breakfast Social" format proved to be a fantastic way to:
Learn from Each Other ππ» We all gained valuable insights from hearing each other's stories and perspectives.
Build Stronger Connections π₯ The relaxed setting fostered deeper connections than a typical networking event.
Understand the Ecosystem β¨ It provided a valuable glimpse into the current startup landscape.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
βeChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasnβt looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.β

"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; itβs been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. Iβve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. ΰ€Έΰ€ΰ€ΰ€ΰ₯ΰ€ΰ€§ΰ₯ΰ€΅ΰ€ ΰ€Έΰ€ΰ€΅ΰ€¦ΰ€§ΰ₯ΰ€΅ΰ€ β Let us move together, speak together. Itβs not just a verse from the Rigveda β itβs how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We donβt just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.
