New Delhi: On the ninth anniversary of the “Startup India” initiative, a grand Startup Mahakumbh was held at Bharat Mandapam in Delhi, where Aman Gupta, co-founder of Boat, expressed his strong admiration for the program.

Now, India is hosting such a program, which is a great achievement for the country. This event will only grow bigger and better every year, and we are happy to be a part of it.

Aman Gupta emphasised how India is evolving as a global leader in nurturing startups, positioning itself as an important hub for entrepreneurial growth. The Startup India initiative has been instrumental in creating an ecosystem that fosters innovation and entrepreneurship across the country.

Arcana Jahagirdar, Founder of Rukm Capital, highlighted the importance of sustaining this momentum. Speaking to IANS, she explained, ”The objective is to ensure that the startup ecosystem continues to develop. Small nations abroad host startup events, but India did not have a platform where all stakeholders could come together.

Startup Mahakumbh was created with this purpose. The ecosystem must keep expanding, and today, we must inspire and encourage our youth to become wealth and job creators. The development of this country lies in the hands of its youth, and that is why Startup Mahakumbh is happening.”
