The minister said that work is being done to create a better startup ecosystem in Tamil Nadu. By visiting expos like GITEX we are looking at how it will benefit Tamil Nadu. Currently, Tamil Nadu has a very good number of startups. Startups are active not only in Chennai but also in tier 2 and tier 3 cities. We are trying to create a support system for startups by setting up more research centers. Efforts are also made to link startups with angel investors and other investors. The iTNT Hub will be launched for the first time in India next month to support startups and innovations. This is considered a milestone. Tamil Nadu has a good government and a visionary leader. Road and connectivity infrastructure facilities are provided in tier 2 and tier 3 towns as well as in major cities. Tamil Nadu also leads in the talent pool. Constantly working to increase the talent pool. Activities such as organizing more hackathons and motivating students to find solutions to problems are being done. Such programs will help to find solutions on one hand and make the youth more creative on the other hand. Earlier, more attention was paid to big companies, but now it is to startups. It also works continuously to connect start-ups with research institutes, investors and venture capital. The Tamil Nadu IT Minister also commented that the startups and ecosystem in Kerala are very good. He was talking to channeliam.com founder Nisha Krishnan.
