The Startup Grand Challenge, which will be part of the India-South Korea hub, will direct the combined entrepreneurial energy of Indian and Korean Startups towards building solutions for the challenges facing the world. Initial challenges will focus on issues across the themes of Credit Rating, Predictive Analytics, Fraud Detection, Cyber Security, Primary/Secondary/Tertiary Healthcare.
Strong Ties Between The Two Countries
“India-Republic of Korea (RoK) relations have made great strides in recent years and have become truly multidimensional, spurred by a significant convergence of interests, mutual goodwill and high level exchanges... Consistent Indian support for peaceful reunification of the two Koreas has been well received in this country,” notes a Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) report.
