eChai:Startup Touchdown-SF

​Startup Touchdown SF is a weekly dinner series by eChai Ventures, built for visiting founders to plug into the Bay Area’s vibrant startup ecosystem — casually, over good food and great conversations.

​This week, with TiEcon bringing founders from across the world to Silicon Valley, we’re hosting a special Founders Dinner on May 6th in San Francisco.

​Whether you’re a founder new to the Bay, backed by a global accelerator, or a local looking to connect with ambitious builders — this dinner is for you.

​Just real conversations, meaningful connections, and practical insights from those who’ve walked the path — and those just starting out.

​What to expect:

• ​A curated group of early-stage and growth-stage founders

• ​Bay Area locals who can help you navigate the scene

• ​Honest advice, introductions, and shared learnings

• ​A relaxed dinner format (everyone pays for what they order)

​Who Should Join:

• ​Investors & Angels looking for breakout early-stage opportunities

• ​Builders & Engineers interested in upskilling, AI, or immersive learning

• ​Designers & Product Thinkers curious about VR/AI-driven UX

• ​Operators & Founders exploring global collaborations

• ​And anyone who wants to connect with visiting Indian founders during TiEcon week

​This is a casual dinner meetup — no stage, no panels. Just honest stories, bold ideas, and new friendships.

​You pay for what you order. No stage, no speeches — just honest conversations.

​Let’s gather, connect, and back what matters.
