Lucknow Nawabi Culture To A HiTech Hub

21 June 2017 Lucknow is known for many things besides its (etiquette). Its history, politics, food, clothes, music, culture and language are traits of a city steeped in rich traditions. The legendary capital of Uttar Pradesh, even after having an IIM in town and couple of IITs nearby still lags somewhere when it comes to provide startup eco-system in Lucknow. Lucknow-Kanpur corridor (90 KM) has some of the greatest talent available. As the ecosystem influencers come together to channelise this potential, with right vision and good governance, we can build one of the best tech hubs here. Lets not ignore that Kanpur has an IIT, and Lucknow has an IIM among many other notable institutions. We knew there is great talent in Lucknow and Uttar Pradesh at large. Many people cannot leave their hometown to work in Bangalore or NCR. With enormous talented human resource the city is far more economical than others. If you show the young people in the city that they can grow here, then there will be no reason for them to move to other cities. We have seen it happening at various instances and it's very motivating. People in Lucknow are warm and their sense of ownership towards work is very high. Startups run on adrenalin and one cannot ignore the emotional intelligence which people from small towns naturally have. Lucknow will embrace the startup culture, but one thing is for sure, these entrepreneurs are passionately bringing about winds of change.
