Delhi + Novelty = Unique Business Opportunities
There is a silent startup revolution stirring up in and around Delhi. While India is home to nearly 60 unicorns till date with 21 of them added to the list this year, a staggering one-third of them are based out of Delhi-NCR. With more government interventions and support, the capital city could become the next startup hotspot of India, and even become one of the top five global startup hubs.
In fact, developing new markets and finding ways to make businesses work is nothing new for Delhi. The startups in the region have not only leveraged the strategic location, the NCR, but also been exemplary in terms of providing the customer experience centric propositions. Let’s take the case of hyperlocal services provider Urban Company, which is the latest startup to join the unicorn club with a valuation of around $2 billion.
