What HCI Talks Does For You
You run companies. You don't have time for another community that demands attendance. Here's what we bring to your table — and exactly how much of your time it costs.
Three Things That Actually Matter
No fluff. No mandatory events. Three high-value offerings, each with a clear time commitment.
Boardroom Roundtables
Curated 12–15 person CXO dinner + structured discussion on a live business theme. No slides, no vendors, no juniors.
Invite-only dinner roundtable. Chatham House rules. Sponsor-backed (no cost to you). 4 cities — Bangalore, Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad.
3–5 new peer connections, a post-event intelligence brief, and a private WhatsApp group with attendees.
Peer Connections
Access to a verified directory of 500+ CXOs. Request warm introductions through mutual connections. No recruiter spam, no cold DMs.
Platform-based. Browse profiles, request intros, accept/decline at your pace. 9 privacy controls — you decide who sees what.
The right connection when you need one — a CHRO for a hiring challenge, a CFO who's been through an IPO, a CTO who scaled the same stack.
Exclusive Opportunities
First access to independent director positions, advisory board roles, fractional CXO mandates, and angel/co-invest opportunities surfaced through the HCI network.
Curated alerts matched to your profile. Only roles that match your seniority, function, and interest. No noise.
Career optionality that doesn't exist on LinkedIn. The board seat you didn't know was open. The advisory gig that found you.
We Build Your Personal Brand— You Just Show Up
73% of board appointments involve an online reputation review. 81% of executives say visibility directly influenced their last career move. Your work speaks for itself — but only if people can find it.
Give Back. Stay Sharp. Build Legacy.
Every established CXO hits a point where the next promotion isn't the goal. The question becomes: what am I building that outlasts this role?
Startup Incubator Mentor
Mentor founders at NSRCEL (IIM-B), T-Hub, Atal Incubation Centres, NASSCOM 10K Startups. Monthly sessions with 2–3 founders in your domain.
Startup Advisor (Equity/Paid)
Growth-stage startups actively seek CXO advisors. We match you to companies where your domain expertise is worth 0.25–1% equity or a paid advisory retainer.
Reverse Mentoring
Learn from the next generation. We pair you with young founders building in GenAI, D2C, Web3, climate tech — they teach you what’s coming, you teach them how to scale.
Next-Gen CXO Mentoring
Mentor rising VP/SVP-level leaders preparing for their first C-suite role. Structured 6-month programme with clear milestones.
Academic & Policy Advisory
Sit on B-school advisory boards (IIMs, ISB, XLRI curriculum committees). Contribute to NITI Aayog working groups, state startup councils, NASSCOM task forces.
Total Time Commitment
One evening per quarter for roundtables. Everything else works around your schedule — no recurring meetings, no mandatory participation, no guilt if you're quiet for 3 months. Built for people who run companies, not people who attend communities.
