I had the incredible opportunity to meet SaiNageswar Satchidanand, Senior Software Engineer at Microsoft and former Amazon expert, during eChai Ventures’s Startup Open House in Hyderabad on August 11th.
Our discussion on machine learning models was truly enlightening, and his deep knowledge and passion for technology were nothing short of inspiring.
Beyond the tech talk, I thoroughly enjoyed learning about SaiNageswar’s enthusiasm for travel and our shared love for exploring new places. It’s always refreshing to connect with someone who brings such a well-rounded perspective and genuine curiosity to the table.
A big thank you, SaiNageswar Satchidanand, for your time and the engaging conversation. I’m excited to stay connected and continue sharing insights and experiences!
The eChai Startup Open House was a fantastic event, offering a vibrant and informal setting to connect with innovative startups and like-minded entrepreneurs. It was a great opportunity to discover new possibilities, share ideas, and build meaningful relationships within the startup community.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
