The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, Singapore Chapter, is working to empower early-stage startups with the Capital, mentorship, networks and global platforms they need to scale, chairperson Anuradha Shroff has said. “As we are working in a global business community, we are promoting India-Singapore startup community for long-term prosperity of the youth-led innovative businesses,” Shroff told on Saturday after hosting a demo-day innovation demonstration and investor pitching sessions.
“This year is special for more reasons than one as Singapore celebrated its 60 years of independence and 60 years of diplomatic relations with India,” said the veteran of managing international businesses for over three decades. “When two nations innovate together, innovation doubles,” underlined Shroff, adding that the cross-border programme connected startups from both countries. India has over 100,000 startups, while Singapore has a growing community, currently estimated to be closer to 50,000 startups.
