The country’s next wave of innovation is coming from Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, where talent and ambition are abundant. At BizDateUp, our goal is to bridge access, capital, and mentorship so that these regions can produce world-class entrepreneurs and job creators. Looking ahead, we aim to help create over 1,00,000 new jobs by 2030, as we continue to back startups that are driving inclusive and sustainable growth across Bharat.”
Adding to this, Meet Jain, CEO of BizDateUp, shared, “As an ecosystem enabler, we have always focused on creating long-term impact. By helping founders build and scale in smaller cities, we are not just supporting businesses we are driving livelihoods, enabling local economies, and contributing to India’s vision of inclusive growth. In our next strategic move, we are deploying a Category II Alternative Investment Fund (AIF) worth INR 1,000 crore, which will further boost employment generation and accelerate the growth of India’s startup ecosystem.”
