Republic Digital is set to host the inaugural Republic Digital Roundtable in Bengaluru, the epicentre of India's vibrant startup ecosystem. The theme of the first edition is “Decoding The Budget Blueprint for Startups 2024”. This exclusive, invite-only event will gather visionary founders and industry leaders for an in-depth discussion on the future of India's startup space in light of the recently announced Union Budget.

Bengaluru, often hailed as the "Silicon Valley of India," is home to over 7,000 startups and a thriving entrepreneurial community, making it the ideal location for this high-impact gathering.
