Fremont’s startup energy is picking up — and it’s only getting better.

Last week, Khyati Brahmbhatt hosted the first eChai Startup Mixer in Fremont — and it felt different in the best way. Founders came with ideas, shared what they were building, and got into conversations that weren’t surface-level.

People showed up — curious, honest, and open to learning from each other.

From someone sharing their early MVP to a group jamming on what growth looks like — it was a reminder of what real community feels like when it’s driven by builders themselves.

Now Khyati is taking it forward with more meetups:

April 15, Tuesday – Where Builders Meet Over Brews
An evening for founders and operators to connect, swap stories, and hang out in a relaxed setting.
at Sama Coffee Shop, San Mateo, California.

RSVP here

April 24, Thursday – AI Founders Circle
Live product demos, real conversations, and a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to build in AI today.
at PlayGround Studio, 2727 Walsh Ave, Suite 101, Santa Clara, CA.
RSVP here

If you're in the Bay Area and building something — these are the rooms you'll want to be in.

Hosted by Khyati Brahmbhatt with eChai Ventures.
