As an entrepreneur, there's nothing more exhilarating than the journey of building a business that stands out as the best in its segment. My biggest high comes from the pursuit of creating an HR ecosystem tailored specifically for MSMEs and SMEs. It's about more than just growth—it's about making a tangible difference in how businesses operate, compete, and thrive.
For me, the ultimate reward is knowing that we've built something that doesn't just meet industry standards but sets them. Our HR solutions are designed to be a game-changer, a true differentiator that helps businesses attract and retain top talent. In today's competitive landscape, the ability to draw in the best people and keep them engaged is what separates the good from the great. And being part of that transformation, helping businesses find their edge, is what drives me every day.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s 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. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.

Their events and networking forums have connected us with high-potential startups, ecosystem leaders, and innovation-driven professionals — many of whom have become valuable partners, collaborators, and even clients. What stands out most is the openness and accessibility of the community — whether you're an early-stage founder or an experienced entrepreneur, eChai provides a welcoming space to learn, collaborate, and grow. It's more than just a network — it's a catalyst for real, collaborative growth. We’re proud to be part of the eChai community. Highly recommended for any organization aiming to grow within the startup space."
