From Tuesday, Hyderabad will host a two-day inception meeting of the Startup 20 Engagement Group, which was set up under India’s G20 presidency.
The G20 is an association of developed and developing countries. This year, India is the president of the United Nations.
Startup 20 is an important engagement group, and Hyderabad has an innovation culture, according to G20 Sherpa Amitabh Kant on Friday.
According to Anurag Jain, Secretary, Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade, Startup 20 has three tracks: foundation and alliance, finance, and inclusivity and sustainability.

According to an official release, Startup20 aims to create a global narrative for supporting startups and enabling synergies between startups, corporates, investors, innovation agencies, and other key ecosystem stakeholders.
The goal of this group is to provide a common platform for start-ups from G20 member countries to collaborate on developing actionable guidance in the form of building enabler capacities, identifying funding gaps, increasing employment opportunities, achieving SDG targets and climate resilience, and growing an inclusive ecosystem, according to the statement.
The Startup 20 activities will be spread across five events. The Startup 20 Inception Meet will be held in Hyderabad on January 28 and 29. The summit will be held in Gurugram in July, with three pre-events planned in various parts of India.
