Commenting on the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, FICCI President, Harshvardhan Neotia said that it's a landmark moment and a major shift from an unshackled regime where Government would merely be a facilitator of the entrepreneurship in the country that would provide employment for our large young population.

"We are sure that the Eco-system been envisioned and the incentive been provided as a part of this strategy for Startup India will encourage large number of young entrepreneurs in the country to come forward with innovative startups," added Harshvardhan Neotia.

Over 100 member delegation of young innovators and startup companies participated under the banner of FICCI in the Startup India launch programme by Prime Minister on January 16th at Vigyan Bhawan. FICCI is an official partner for the launch of "Startup India, Standup India" initiative of the Prime Minister.
