Abstract:
Northern India has emerged as a dynamic hub for entrepreneurship, driven by a combination of geographical advantages, government initiatives, educational institutions, investor interest, and supportive infrastructure. This study examines the evolution and current status of the startup ecosystem in key states, including Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Delhi, and Haryana. Through empirical research and case studies, we analyze the critical factors influencing growth, the challenges faced by local businesses, and potential strategies for fostering a more robust entrepreneurial environment. By offering valuable insights into these dynamics, this research provides policymakers, investors, and stakeholders with actionable recommendations to strengthen support mechanisms and drive sustainable growth in the region’s start-up ecosystem.
