Government today is 'Strategic partner than enabler'
India’s innovation startup ecosystem, particularly in sportech, is rapidly maturing. Favorable demographics provide a natural demand tailwind, positioning India as a frontline market that may structurally outgrow China over time. Supportive policy-making has become a cornerstone for growth, strengthening the sector’s foundations and accelerating commercialisation. Together, a vibrant startup base, rising consumer demand, and enabling regulations position sportech to emerge as one of India’s largest consumer markets in the coming years.
