Haryana Chief Minister (CM) has reiterated the state government’s commitment to positioning Haryana as a prominent startup hub in India. Speaking on the growing potential of the state in fostering innovation, the CM announced plans to introduce new schemes aimed at promoting and supporting startups in the upcoming 2025-26 state budget.
The CM emphasized that Haryana’s strategic location, along with its strong infrastructure and skilled workforce, provides the perfect foundation for fostering a thriving startup ecosystem. The government’s vision is to create a conducive environment for entrepreneurs to innovate, scale their businesses, and attract investment.
In recent years, India’s startup landscape has witnessed a dramatic transformation, moving beyond traditional business hubs such as Bengaluru, Delhi NCR, and Mumbai. Tier II and III cities have increasingly emerged as key centers for entrepreneurial activity. Haryana, with its robust industrial infrastructure and increasing focus on technology and innovation, is well-positioned to capitalize on this trend.
The upcoming budget will focus on a range of initiatives designed to offer financial support, mentorship, and networking opportunities to aspiring entrepreneurs across the state. These initiatives will include startup incubators, funding schemes, and incentives aimed at easing regulatory hurdles, which will encourage new businesses to set up operations in Haryana.
Haryana’s push to become a startup hub aligns with the broader national vision of strengthening the startup ecosystem and making India a global leader in innovation and entrepreneurship. The CM also hinted at collaborations with established tech giants and academic institutions to create an ecosystem conducive to high-growth startups.
As the Indian startup ecosystem continues to expand, Haryana is poised to become one of the most exciting and promising states for entrepreneurship in the coming years. With the government’s unwavering support, the startup ecosystem in Haryana is set to thrive, creating job opportunities and contributing to the state’s economic growth.
