Samsung invites startups to collaborate on its Digital India initiatives: All the details
Aiming to accelerate its Digital India journey, Samsung has invited startups to collaborate on technologies around the Government’s Digital India stack, which includes UPI, Digilocker, Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC), Open Credit Enablement Network (OCEN) and Unified Health Interface (UHI) among others.
The startups will partner with Samsung’s R&D centres and business units in India on domains such as wallet, health and fitness where products and services will be integrated with the Samsung ecosystem.
In addition to that, Samsung will also explore funding support for some of these startups to help them further scale their solutions.
As a first step to connecting with startups in India, Samsung held a Startup Collab event at the iconic Samsung Opera House in Bengaluru earlier this week. At the event, around 25 startups from across India came together and interacted with Samsung leadership from its R&D centres in Bengaluru and Noida and its corporate headquarters in Gurugram, exploring Samsung’s ecosystem of products and services and understanding where they can potentially collaborate around Digital India initiatives.
The startups that attended Samsung’s Startup Collab event were from the fintech, health tech and eCommerce space with some of them utilizing the India Stack to build for Digital India services.
As part of the collaboration, Samsung’s R&D centres and business units in India will work together with the startups to co-build solutions for a specific product or service that has the potential to be integrated with Samsung’s product ecosystem.
Samsung’s engineers will also provide these startups with technical mentorship as well as guidance in protecting their intellectual property, wherever relevant.
“Samsung is a consumer-centric company and strives to develop meaningful innovations for consumers in India. The Government’s Digital India stack is revolutionary and has the potential to transform the way many sectors work. We wish to collaborate with startups who have cutting-edge technologies in this space, which, when integrated with the Samsung ecosystem, can transform the lives of people, our consumers,” said Dipesh Shah, Managing Director, Samsung R&D Institute Bangalore.
