Bangalore startups are 67 percent more likely to tackle smaller markets than their peers in Silicon Valley. They are 10 percent less likely to tackle markets sized $1 to $10 billion, and 51 percent less likely to tackle markets greater than $10 billion.Bangalore has a low rate of technology adoption: Bangalore engineers heavily rely on PHP and Java, and much less on Ruby and Python compared to their peers in Silicon Valley.

Will Bangalore be the Startup Capital?

While Startup Genome did its bit by recognizing the potentiality of Bangalore for startups, there are few other organizations that strongly believe this fact and thus have come forward to rejuvenate entrepreneurship in the country.  The Indus Entrepreneurs and Unstoppable India along with Government of Karnataka has initiated a four day long startup festival which would consist 75 or more sessions, 60 venues, over 100 partners, 60 startups, 50 speakers and more than 500 founders.

With this stupendous event and the benefits it would sow, Bangalore has fair chances to be named as the startup capital of the country.  “There are few tech gatherings and perhaps Startup Festival India will begin a grassroots effort to encourage more social events,” says Dubovskiy, founder Unstoppable India.
