The initiative includes co-working community hosting, planning and organising structured activities such as learning and skill development programmes for budding entrepreneurs.
“We have already worked with hundreds of start-ups through our various programmes and by teaming up with 91springboard we hope to reach out to more, to fuel India’s start-up ecosystem with a vision to build businesses of tomorrow,” Satyajeet Singh, Head of Product Partnerships, Facebook India and South Asia said.
Facebook Hubs will be part of a global network for training and mentoring facilities for not just start-ups, but also developers, small and medium businesses, creators, and job seekers, the statement added.
