Google picks 20 Indian startups for its accelerator programme
Google on Tuesday said it has selected 20 Indian startups, including the train ticket booking app Trainman for the seventh edition of its Google for Startups Accelerator. These Seed to Series A startups will work to harness the power of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and have been chosen from more than 1050 applications, the company said.
“These startups now join the growing portfolio of 137 Google for Startups Accelerator startups in India. We have kick-started the program with a 1-week in-person bootcamp in Bengaluru on 12th June focused on training/workshops and office hours around product and design, tech, growth, and people, with a significant focus on AI/ML and Generative AI,” the company said.
The startups selected include Trainman, which has recently been acquired by the Adani Group. The Google for Startups Accelerator (GFSA) is a three-month, equity-free accelerator programme for Seed to Series A tech startups in India.
It has, so far, helped to accelerate the growth journeys of over 130 startups in India. In March this year, Google opened the applications for the seventh edition of the accelerator programme.
