MeitY builds a startup hub for stakeholders
India has set up a hub for startups, which will act as a platform to connect with incubators, accelerators, mentors, and eventually, angel funds and venture capitalists.
Union Minister for IT and Electronics, Ravi Shankar Prasad, will later this week formally inaugurate the platform, where nearly 1,000 startups and 130 incubation centres have currently gone live.
The Ministry of Electronics and IT, which set up the “social media platform for startups”, has appointed former entrepreneur Deepak Agarwal, who will put together a team to run the platform, a government official told ET.
