STARTUPS FOUNDERS HUB PLATFORM

Leave a Comment / Entrepreneurship / By akram

 * New platform will support founders in India at every stage of their startup
   journey with access to more than US $ 300,000 in benefits including
   technology and tools from Microsoft and partners
 * Startups will also be able to gain mentorship and skilling opportunities with
   industry experts and Microsoft Learn

New Delhi, 31 March 2022 – Microsoft today launched its Microsoft for Startups
Founders Hub in India to empower startups’ vision and fuel innovation to drive
economic and societal progress for India and beyond. Microsoft for Startups
Founders Hub is a new digital and truly inclusive platform for startup founders
in India. The platform offers over US $ 300,000 worth of benefits and credits,
giving startups free access to the technology, tools, and resources they need to
build and run their business. From the most trusted, secure, open-source
friendly and compliant cloud platform, to best-in-class developer and
productivity tools including GitHub Enterprise, Visual Studio Enterprise and
Microsoft 365.

Beyond access to technology, Microsoft for Startups Founders Hub will empower
entrepreneurs to innovate and grow by connecting them with mentors who will
provide them with industry, business, and technical support to guide them
through their next business milestones. Microsoft is also partnering with
innovative companies like OpenAI, a global leader in AI research and deployment,
that develops AI systems such as GPT-3 and Codex to provide startups with
exclusive benefits and discounts. In addition, founders will have access to
Microsoft Learn for tailored startup-centric training and a variety of startup
and unicorn programs to help them build connections with customers or industry
veterans and accelerate their growth.



Microsoft for Startups Founders Hub is designed specifically for early-stage
startups to lower the barriers of business creation, be a catalyst for
entrepreneurship and innovation, and contribute to easing the journey from an
idea to a unicorn. It is available to all startups in India, including those
without third-party validation or funding, as part of Microsoft’s commitment to
empower startups’ ambitions to drive innovation from India to the world.

“Disruptive innovation in Indian startups is accelerating India’s position to
become one of the world’s leading startups hubs. As a trusted partner, we want
to empower every startup in India to help scale their idea to become a unicorn
and beyond. As a platform company, our cloud services and solutions are designed
to empower founders to concentrate on what they do best – innovate at their own
pace. Our aim is to provide startups access to the resources that will power
their innovation, connect them with customers, and an ecosystem of developers,
partners and investors to help them scale in India and beyond, ”said Sangeeta
Bavi, Director – Startup Ecosystem, Microsoft India.

“Microsoft for Startups Founders Hub was created following extensive research
and conversations with hundreds of founders who explicitly shared their need for
access to a digital ecosystem that promotes opportunities and democratizes
innovation regardless of background, location, progress, or passions. We look
forward to how our new offering will support more founders in Asia and provide
access to the technology, tools, and resources they need to build and run their
business. ”

As the third largest ecosystem for startups in the world, India holds tremendous
opportunities for emerging businesses across industries. Microsoft continues to
demonstrate its ongoing commitment to India’s startup ecosystem and founders
through specially curated initiatives. Last year, Microsoft launched a program
for nurturing and scaling startups that are leveraging Artificial Intelligence
(AI) called Microsoft AI Innovate. The program supports startups in India
leveraging AI technologies, helping them scale operations, drive innovation, and
build industry expertise. In collaboration with Accenture, Microsoft has also
expanded Project Amplify to support startups focused on sustainability and
social impact, with hands-on support and technologies, mentoring and
collaboration opportunities.
