How The StartupLab Is helping startup Founders in Business Growth – Primex News Network

June 11: The growth of the Indian startup ecosystem has been exponential over the years. This year is also going good, as 17 more Indian startups have entered the coveted unicorn club, taking the total number of Indian startup unicorns to 102.

A few years back, with little to no funding options, no single platform for compliance filing, business advisory, and no legal or tech assistance, the majority of Indian entrepreneurs faced numerous issues in setting up their startups in the past.

Understanding the issue, Shruti Aggarwal, a qualified Company Secretary, started The StartupLab (TSL), an all-in-one destination for everything a startup needs, in 2018.
