National Startup Day 2022: Calling startups as the backbone of new India, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday declared January 16 as National Startup Day. “I congratulate all the start-ups, all the youth, who are raising the flag of India in the world of start-ups. For this culture of start-ups to reach the far-flung parts of the country, it has been decided to celebrate January 16 as National Start-up Day,” he announced while interacting with over 150 startups across different sectors.

HISTORY

During his interaction with startups via video conferencing, Modi lauded the growth of the startup sector in India over the past few years. “There’s at least one startup in at least 625 districts across India. Nearly half of India’s all startups are in Tier-II or Tier-III cities. It shows that people from all classes are converting their ideas into businesses,” Modi was quoted by Prasar Bharati as saying.

“Last year India created 42 unicorns! I firmly believe that the golden period of startups is just beginning,” he said.

“The campaign that is going on in India regarding innovation has the effect that India’s ranking in the Global Innovation Index has also improved a lot. In 2015, India was at number 81 in this ranking. Now India is at number 46 in the Innovation Index,” said Modi, who was quoted by Prasar Bharati in a tweet.

I believe that startups are going to be the backbone of India,” PM added.
