Facebook doubles down on India’s digital growth, helps SMBs

Facebook on Tuesday said that it is committed to help India quickly recover economically and socially in 2021 from the pandemic-hit year, by deepening support for small businesses and test and roll its new features from the country to the rest of the world.

The social networking platform said the ‘Nayi Shuruaat’ campaign launched during its ‘Fuel for India’ event is an ode to the resilience of small businesses amid crisis.

Facebook said it will continue to work closely with key partners to build a stronger ecosystem for small business growth in the country by investing in skilling programmes such as Boost with Facebook, entering in key partnerships such as with venture capital funds for the VC Brand Incubator program,
