28 non-official members nominated to National Startup Advisory Council

The government on Tuesday nominated 28 non-official members including Byju’s founder and CEO Byju Raveendran and Kris Gopalakrishnan from Axilor Ventures on the National Startup Advisory Council.

The council was set up last year to advise the government on measures needed to build a strong ecosystem for nurturing innovation and startups in the country.

“The Central Government has now decided to nominate the non-official members on the National Startup Advisory Council representing various stakeholders,” the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) said in a statement.
