Government

As A Marketplace

Kerala has made major strides for facilitating the growth of B2G startups in the state. The Government of Kerala has introduced the first-of-its-kind initiative of providing direct procurement options to Government departments from startups, the first time by any State Government in India. This sprouts from the Kerala State IT Policy 2017 that formalised public procurement from startups.
