What to carry

• Wear good shoes
• Cap, sunglasses if you prefer
• Water bottle - mandatory
• Napkin
• Good shoes - if it rains you should be ok for shoes to get muddy
• ⁠If it rains: wear raincoat or bring along with you but trekking is more fun if you are ok to get wet!
• Change of T-shirt after the trek, optional

What to expect

• This is a very easy trek, infact it is a trail walk
• You will be able to soak in the nature and perfectly enjoy the start of monsoon season
• Will it be hot? Will it be cold? Will it rain? No one knows. That’s the fun in uncertainty. We will learn to enjoy this and stories about Pune, ARAI tekdi and mountains.

The meetup is designed to create a relaxed setting for candid discussions around startups, business, technology, growth, and life. Special guests from the startup ecosystem will join the trek, followed by open networking where attendees can connect, share ideas, learn from each other's journeys, and build new relationships.

Unlike traditional conference rooms and event spaces, the eChai Startup Trekking Meetup creates opportunities for authentic conversations while exploring one of Pune's favourite morning trekking spots. Whether you're building a startup, planning one, or simply curious about entrepreneurship, this is a great opportunity to meet like-minded people from the community.

Start your Sunday morning with fresh air, great conversations, and new connections from Pune's startup community.

This meetup is free and open to all.
