🇮🇳 Gurjodhpal Singh, CEO, Tide in India shared his views about the expectations from the upcoming annual budget with LiveMint. Read his quote here: https://bit.ly/3LrckGV ➡️ Gurjodh said: “The budget should prioritise a four-pronged approach: empowering SMEs by bridging the credit gap, investment in cutting-edge technologies, more focus on women-led small businesses and ensuring inclusive growth. While the Startup India initiative has provided valuable support, a significantly larger dedicated fund is needed to truly propel India's AI and other frontier technology sectors. This ecosystem holds the key to propelling India towards its USD 7 trillion economy target by 2030. Similarly, further investment in Skill India Digital can enhance their workforce's capabilities, as fostering innovation in emerging technology is essential to keep India competitive on the global stage” Vaamanaa Sethi #Tide #India #AbBusinessHuaAasaan #Budget #Views #Opinion #smallbusinesses #technology #AI #womenentrepreneurs
