Quarterly gatherings · In the cities where the brown girls gather · & growing
Pull up a chair. Spill the chai. Spill the chai on investing.
Quarterly intimate gatherings of South Asian women from every walk of life, small business owners, scaled founders, operators, almost angels, full angels. The room where we all cross paths because the culture is what brings us together.
Complimentary series, no membership required. Didi members and Brown Girl Angels Collective members get first right of refusal on every seat.
The room
Chai & Chaat is exactly what it sounds like. Chai, chaat, and sometimes we mix it up with dosas and a wider South Asian spread, always sourced from a local South Asian owned spot like The Bite Box.
It looks like good food in a beautiful room. It is, actually, the room where South Asian women from every walk of life cross paths, women starting their small business journey, founders who have scaled and moved into retail or raised a Series A, operators, almost angels, and women already writing checks. We all show up because the culture is what brings us together, and we are here to support each other’s journey, wherever each of us is on it.
We sit. We snack. We talk about money the way our families never did out loud, with each other, and on our own terms.
The conversation is the on ramp. Hosted in the cities where the brown girls are already gathering, and growing.
What it looks like
01 · The format
Curated chai, chaat, dosas, and a wider South Asian spread from local South Asian owned spots.
02 · The room
Wherever the room feels right in that city. A short, real conversation on money, building, investing, never a lecture.
03 · Who it is for
Women starting their small business journey, founders who have scaled, operators and execs one to three years from their first check, angels and almost angels who want a softer, slower room.
Spilling chai. Spicy combos.
Honest money talk.
Every Chai & Chaat is catered by a local South Asian owned kitchen. The food, the women in the room, the afternoon. That is the gathering.
