The government has recently announced the launch of a ground-breaking digital platform named 'Bhaskar' which aims at strengthening the startup ecosystem in India. 

The Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Ministry of Commerce and Industry, is set to launch the ‘Bharat Startup Knowledge Access Registry’ (BHASKAR) initiative, under the Startup India programme.

It is a platform that has been designed to centralise, streamline, and enhance collaboration among key stakeholders within the entrepreneurial ecosystem, including startups, service providers, investors, mentors and government bodies.

In an official statement, the Ministry of Commerce and Industry said, “This initiative aligns with the government of India’s vision to transform India into a global leader in innovation and entrepreneurship, reinforcing the country’s commitment to the startup movement."

India is currently home to over 1,46,000 DPIIT-recognised startups.

BHASKAR seeks to leverage this potential by providing an all-encompassing, one-stop digital platform that addresses the challenges faced by entrepreneurs and investors alike.

According to the ministry, by serving as a centralised registry, BHASKAR will enable seamless access to a wide array of resources, tools, and knowledge that will help fuel the entrepreneurial journey from ideation to execution.

By providing personalised BHASKAR IDs for each stakeholder, the platform will facilitate easier interaction, enhance searchability, and allow for efficient discovery of relevant opportunities and partnerships.

The primary goal of BHASKAR is to build the world’s largest digital registry for stakeholders within the startup ecosystem. To achieve this, the platform will offer several key features like networking and collaboration, providing centralised access to resources, creating personalised identification, enhancing discoverability and supporting India’s global brand.

The launch of BHASKAR marks a significant step forward in the government’s ongoing efforts to promote innovation, entrepreneurship, and job creation.

It will serve as a central hub where startups, investors, service providers, and government bodies can come together to collaborate, exchange ideas, and accelerate growth. The government said it invites all stakeholders to become part of this transformative initiative.
