New initiatives to strengthen startup ecosystem

加强创业生态系统的新举措

In a bid to strengthen India’s startup ecosystem by fostering innovation and supporting tech entrepreneurs, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) has appointed Panneerselvam Madanagopal as the Chief Executive Officer of the MeitY Startup Hub.

为了通过促进创新和支持科技企业家来加强印度的创业生态系统，电子和信息技术部 (MeitY) 任命 Panneerselvam Madanagopal 为 MeitY 创业中心的首席执行官。

With over two decades of experience in technology and management, Madanagopal is expected to drive significant growth in the sector, aligning with the government’s vision of making India a global leader in technology and innovation.

Madanagopal 拥有二十多年的技术和管理经验，预计将推动该行业的显着增长，符合政府让印度成为全球技术和创新领导者的愿景。

In December, MeitY signed a five-year partnership with YouthNet, a non-profit organization in North East India, to empower technology-driven startups. Operating under the aegis of MeitY Startup Hub and the Digital India Corporation, YouthNet will focus on employment generation and economic growth.

去年 12 月，MeitY 与印度东北部的非营利组织 YouthNet 签署了为期五年的合作伙伴关系，为技术驱动型初创企业提供支持。 YouthNet 在 MeitY Startup Hub 和 Digital India Corporation 的支持下运营，将专注于创造就业和经济增长。

“Despite a challenging macroeconomic environment, the sector has demonstrated resilience. Web3 maintained steady VC funding at $8 billion during the first nine months of 2024, on par with the previous year. With the recent bullish price momentum and a more favorable regulatory environment in the U.S. under Trump, we anticipate a resurgence in VC interest in Web3, paving the way for even greater innovation in 2025,” said Rohit Jain, Chief Strategy and Investment Officer, CoinDCX, India’s first digital currency unicorn, told CoinGeek.

“尽管宏观经济环境充满挑战，但该行业表现出了韧性。 2024 年前 9 个月，Web3 的风险投资资金保持稳定在 80 亿美元，与上一年持平。随着最近看涨的价格势头以及特朗普领导下的美国监管环境更加有利，我们预计风险投资对 Web3 的兴趣将重新抬头，为 2025 年更大的创新铺平道路。”CoinDCX 首席战略和投资官 Rohit Jain 表示印度首家数字货币独角兽告诉CoinGeek。

Funding surge boosts startup growth

资金激增推动初创企业增长

One of the factors driving India’s startup ecosystem is the vast pool of tech talent, advancements in technology, and an increased Internet and smartphone penetration. A surge in venture capital funding is accelerating the growth of existing startups, while the Startup20 engagement group institutionalized under India’s G20 presidency is stimulating innovation among stakeholders, the KPMG report noted.
