NSW supports fintech startups with exchange opportunity

The NSW government is offering ten NSW financial technology (fintech) startups the chance to go on an intensive one week business development program in India from 24–29 June 2018.

NSW Minister for Trade and Industry Niall Blair said the program was the first to be supported by a two-year $1.58 million partnership set up between NSW and India to enhance the State’s startup, technology and advanced manufacturing sectors.

“This fantastic partnership was announced during the Premier’s recent trade mission to India and I’m delighted that we’ve made quick progress to get the first partnership program underway.

“This is an outstanding opportunity for NSW entrepreneurs who are developing their ideas, who want to learn from India’s best and brightest and who want to explore one of the world’s most dynamic technology and startup markets,” he said.

Blair said the new partnership was a great opportunity to develop NSW and India’s increasing economic and cultural ties.

“The trade of goods and services between NSW and India is worth approximately $1.8 billion annually, including coal, metals and textile fibres as well as education.

“The new partnership gives us another platform for growth – to build engagement in innovative, knowledge-based industries and to create strong connections for our startup communities.”
