That was a blast! On Saturday, I spoke at Draper Startup House x eChai Ventures with Rinky Pandey about:

- How to choose startup ideas
- How to pick the right channels
- How to build repeatable customer acquisition funnels

Rinky helped these budding entrepreneurs with insights on fundraising,
and what VCs look for, in founders.

1 hour of heavy rain from Whitefield to Koramangala,
made me feel it'd be an empty house.

Instead, the turnout was amazing!

Thanks to Mansi Baheti & Jatin Chaudhary for putting this together :) 

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"The eChai platform has been super valuable for me - it has helped me gain a deeper understanding of domains in the startup and tech ecosystem. What stands out most is the celebration of knowledge, professional growth, and entrepreneurship - it’s one of the best for the Indian ecosystem. Along the way, I’ve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."

"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."
