Rishi Jain is the Founder and CEO of Digital Scholar and Co-founder of echoVME Digital. His work is unusually practical because it sits between two worlds: students who need clarity and brands that need outcomes.

He began by teaching digital marketing in Chennai, then grew Digital Scholar into a learning ecosystem for marketers, founders, working professionals, and corporate teams. As AI became the new operating layer, his focus shifted to teaching tools, workflows, and frameworks that can be used immediately.

The result is a teaching style that is direct, field-tested, and current. Rishi does not teach from a retired playbook. He teaches from what his teams, cohorts, clients, and learners are using right now.
