The Skill India Digital Accelerator Program has been successfully culminated by T-Hub with the support of NSDC and Parivartan Startup Grants from HDFC. The goal of the program is to spur innovation and expansion in the skill development industry.
Ten highly qualified firms have been carefully chosen to receive funding from HDFC’s Parivartan Startup Grants.
The innovative goal of the Skill India Digital Accelerator Program was to find and support entrepreneurs that are transforming skill development and improving employment in India.
The advancement of workforce capacities and innovation in skill development and employment preparation are greatly aided by these startups.
By collaborating with businesses, enhancing functionality, and increasing accessibility to a range of stakeholders, the initiative also seeks to improve the Skill India Digital Platform and create a more inclusive skill development ecosystem.
In collaboration with prestigious institutions like T-Hub, NSDC, and Parivartan Startup Grants by HDFC, we aimed to provide vital resources and capital to entrepreneurs presenting creative solutions that meet changing labor market needs.
From a pool of 369 applications, 10 startups have emerged as the chosen pioneers. These startups include Cunomial, Karmmin, Crion Versity, Humlogjobs, Vridhee Innovations Private Limited, Edubuk, Online Saathi, HowBee, SkyySkill Academy, and TheQube.
With the help of strategic funding and assistance, each chosen firm was able to build and expand their creative ideas, significantly improving skill development programs across the country.
These firms are well-positioned to broaden their influence and audience by working with the NSDC’s Skill India Digital Platform, guaranteeing accessibility and inclusion across all groups and industries.
The course deliberately concentrates on topics like finding opportunities, bilingual user interfaces, upskilling, and thorough coverage of government initiatives.
It also highlights entrepreneurship, financial inclusion for gig workers, and the use of AI to provide tailored recommendations that will encourage creativity and employee empowerment.
