Tata Trusts' initiative Social Alpha said on Tuesday it has entered into
a partnership with Google Developers Launchpad to support social impact
start-ups in Indias growing start-up ecosystem.
The partnership -
Social Alpha Powered by Google Developers Launchpad - is designed to
help start-ups gain access to resources including expert mentors, tools,
and methodologies for building businesses that can drive meaningful
impact on the technology ecosystem. This initiative will enable
Social Alpha to create learning programmes based on information and
resources aggregated from a select group of the world's top
accelerators.
Social Alpha will also access Google's global
network, insights from the company's Silicon Valley-based start-up
programmes and Google's research and best practices on building
businesses, products, and teams. "As we continue to build and
grow the lab-to-market ecosystem for high impact innovations in India,
our portfolio companies need access to world class technologies
especially in the areas of data science and machine learning," Manoj
Kumar, Founder and CEO of Social Alpha, said in a statement.
"Our
partnership with the Google Developers Launchpad program will address
this gap, and help unlock the immense potential that resides in these
start-ups," Kumar said. This partnership will focus on
supporting start-ups that have the potential and / or are already
incorporating Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Technologies
in their work.
"Google Developers Launchpad doesn't take an
equity stake in accelerator portfolio start-ups, but instead focuses on
developing companies and their ecosystems over the long term," said
Kevin O'Toole, Google's Head of International Growth for Launchpad.
Google
Developers Launchpad is a branch of Google that operates a global
acceleration programme which helps start-ups around the world to grow.
