Which sectors will grow significantly in the startup ecosystem in 2024 and why are investors looking at these sectors?
AI is undoubtedly a trending topic, but its potential could be limited by a shortage of experts and a clear vision. Meanwhile, Fintech is gaining prominence globally, making it a sector to watch closely.
Why is India such an attractive market for the start-up ecosystem and what is the country’s unique appeal for would-be international investors?
The availability of talent is the major plus for India. There are still tier 2 & 3 cities which are waiting to be unlocked and be a part of the digital revolution across the globe. We are also working from one of the lesser-known cities - Calicut and we have clients in multiple countries and is doing well financially.
How important is the Middle East and Africa for your business, and what is your growth strategy in the region for the coming years?
Most of our client's hail from the Middle East. As we aim to broaden our reach, we're strategizing to establish a physical presence in various cities across multiple countries. We recognize that we're only beginning to tap into the potential.
In which ways can AI help startups reach new levels of efficiency and excellence and how is the world’s next big tech shift supporting the growth of companies in your industry?
AI reduces redundancy, and that's precisely why we've integrated it. Prioritizing AI implementation enhances efficiency for our clients and thus the whole industry.
How do you see the regulations for fast-growing digital sectors such as finance/banking and Web 3.0 services, and how do you believe startups should prepare for it?
Emerging digital sectors consistently present themselves. As entrepreneurs, it's imperative that we harness their full potential. Currently, Web 3.0 holds significant importance, and we must adeptly navigate and capitalize on its offerings. Startups should remain attuned to the latest trends to stay ahead of the curve.
Anything else you’d like to add?
India's ties with Dubai should certainly facilitate both investors and companies at the event. I'm optimistic that everyone will benefit from this collaboration.
