First eChai Women Founders Meetup at J Startup House Sets the Tone for What’s to Come in Jaipur

First eChai Women Founders Meetup at J Startup House Sets the Tone for What’s to Come in Jaipur
We honestly didn’t know how it would go.

The first Echai Women Entrepreneurs Meet in Jaipur was a let’s try and see moment.

But what happened last evening blew us away.

The event wasn’t just successful, it was deeply interactive.

The audience had endless questions. The panelists were vulnerable, raw, and bold.

We had funny moments, inspiring stories, and so many nods from the audience that said, “Yes, I feel that too.”

Alpana ma’am called her son back from his job in Bangalore to build Nuskha with her.

prabjyot is raising 2 sons, 7 and 14 years old and managing her startup like a pro.

CS Radhika Balasaria left Kolkata at the peak of her career, locked herself in a room for 6 months after moving to Jaipur, and now she’s absolutely killing it.

My biggest takeaways

→ You need to have deep passion for your startup. Your customers should feel it.
→ Talk to your customers. Every single day.
→ Decide your priorities daily—some days it's family, some days it's work.
→ Don’t give up. Ever.

Also so happy to see more women in the audience this time. That made my day.

This was just the beginning. Jaipur has so many powerful women building quietly, we’re here to make more noise now.

Until next time!
