Explaining how the partnership will help India, Narayan added that international startups will also get a platform for entry to the Indian markets, which will bring more technological advancements to the country.

In the past, T-Hub has inked a few partnerships with companies around the world to boost the Indian startup ecosystem. In September 2019, T-Hub signed a tripartite MoU with two companies based out of New Jersey to boost technology and investment exchange between India and the US. The three entities are collaborating for startup innovation, funding, and entrepreneurship.

In October 2019, T-hub in collaboration with FalconX Inc had rolled out its startup booster programme, Trestle. The programme is providing growth-stage startups with opportunities to assess product fitment and readiness to new markets across the globe.

In collaboration with the department of science and technology (DST) and National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), T-Hub had launched Fintech Accelerator Programme for startups working in the digital payments sector in November last year. The selected startups will get the opportunity to pitch their innovations and get mentored by NPCI and T-Hub.
