Bold vision for 369 Innovations in 2025
- Strengthening our identity from Crealoons Innovations to 369 Innovations & Manufacturing
- Expanding from R&D to commence our very own manufacturing unit for medical devices in B2B space with the support of our network & connections in medical device companies in US
- Entering a different business in diagnostics (sticking to our longer vision on making a name in medical devices) in Africa
Seizing the Opportunity
- Scope of better medical device innovations across multiple disciplines in healthcare
- Global paradigm shift from governments to assist with medical devices
- No or minimum import and export taxes on certain medical devices to give a benefit to companies like ours
Evolving as a Founder
- This year will be majorly focused on learning to find a balance between manufacturing & diagnostics
- Looking forward to seeing my personal growth or failure in managing hiring between French speaking medical professionals & manufacturing professionals
- To achieve a few personal goals like learning french to be able to establish work in francophone nations & new learning courses including a doctorate.
The eChai Effect - In Their Words
“You don’t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up … and one day, you realize you did.” I’ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, we’ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts — our venture builder — eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isn’t just a startup network. It’s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."

“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”
