There are many drivers of India’s economic growth and transformation – but certainly punching above their weight are Indian startups.
There were over 50,000 startups in India in 2018.
India has the third largest startup ecosystem in the world.
The success is partly driven by corporate India (which is providing much of the funding) and by the Indian Government policies.
Bengaluru is in the world’s top 20 startup cities and ranks in the top 5 of the “fastest growing”.
Some of the best known Indian startups include Ola Cabs, Snapdeal (e-commerce), OYO (hotels), Swiggy (food delivery), Big Basket (food e-commerce) and BYJU’s (ed tech).
