eChai Startup Demo Day in Mumbai Brought Founder Pitches, Candid VC Insight, and a Whole Lot of Morning Momentum
I just love this audience! The energy, the curiosity, the questions - you all made this session truly special.❤️

It was such a pleasure hosting this morning’s fireside at eChai Ventures with Pras Hanuma, General Partner at NextUnicorn.Fund | VC, Accelerator, NextUnicorn Global StartUp Awards Fund.

We had a packed room, some super interesting founder pitches, and a whole lot of wisdom and warmth.

Huge gratitude to Pras Hanuma, who literally came straight from the airport after a delayed flight - thank you for showing up with such presence and generosity 🙏

Thank you to the amazing team at DevX for the vibrant work space, and to Jatin Chaudhary and eChai Ventures for giving me the opportunity to host this incredible session!

We need more mornings like this in Mumbai! One where founders show up, ask better questions, and leave a little more inspired than when they walked in.
