SPF is a premier industry organisation representing India’s leading new-age companies.

The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between DPIIT and SPF aims to empower startups, innovators, and entrepreneurs to drive economic growth.

The MoU reflects a vision to make technology and innovation integral to India’s economic growth, driving the nation closer to Bharat at 2047 aspirations.

As part of the National Startup Week celebrations, SPF will hold a flagship event Startup Baithak from January 15-16 at Bharat Mandapam.
