WHY EXPLORE BANGALORE IN INDIA?

One of the largest concentration of startups in the world

#Startups

We organise learning expeditions in Bangalore to interact with this growing startups ecosystem.

Bangalore has an estimated 1,800-2,300 active tech startups that have raised a total of US$1.8 billion just in the first Q of 2018. Bangalore hosts the e-commerce unicorn Flipkart, main competitor of Amazon in India, the unicorn healthcare platform Practo or the Edtech Byju which raised $344 millions, including $50 Millions by Sequoia Capital and Zuckerberg Initiative.

A concentration of technical talents and innovation experimentation hot spots for corporates

#OpenInnovation #CorporateInnovation #Software

Leveraging on the great concentration of talented software engineers and entrepreneurs, capable to handle deep tech, corporates (Target, Wallmart, Microsoft, SAP, Societe Generale,…) have launched accelerators, incubators and labs to accelerate startups in early-stage.

The world’s first country to open APIs from all its government tech platforms and experiment biometric payment

#FinTech #API #Biometric #GovTech

India’s biometric-identity database Aadhaar now counts more than a billion registered users, and is turning into a bankless, cashless payment system for all. All businesses in India can leverage on Aadhaar and the India Stack to facilitate digital KYC authentication. Aadhaar’s mandatory use for authentication has led to a nationwide debate about privacy and a decision from the Supreme Court.

The Mecca of Frugal innovation - or “Jugaad” in Hindi

#Healthcare #Transportation #CostReduction #FrugalInnovation

Due to the lack of funding and resources, India has developed a culture of frugal innovation, launching reliable low-cost products and services adapted to needs of low-and middle-income countries, with efficient delivery process to reach users further, faster and more economically. Frugal innovation has transformed the healthcare industry, as well as transportation in India (eg: Tata Motors’ small car Nano).
