India is world’s fastest growing innovation ecosystem: Rajeev Chandrasekhar

India is the fastest growing innovation ecosystem in the world where around 102 unicorns have been created in the last few years, Minister of State for Skill Development, Entrepreneurship, Electronics and Information Technology Rajeev Chandrasekhar has said here.

Speaking at ‘Vishwa Sadhhavna’ event here on Saturday, Chandrasekhar said that none of these unicorns have famous last names. They don’t have any political connection. They have been built on enterprise and capability, and determination and hard work, he said.

The minister spoke about various initiatives taken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and transforming India into “New India” during the Dubai Chapter of the event, organised by the NID Foundation.
