‘Many global investors we interacted with at Dubai Expo want to open offices in city’
The international investor community has an increased interest in startups in India in general and those in Bengaluru in particular, said C.N. Ashwath Narayan, Minister for Information Technology, Biotechnology, Higher Education, Skill Development and Entrepreneurship.
Private equity and venture capital firms, other investors and family investors were keen on participating in not just ‘A’ series of funds, but also in ‘B’, ‘C’ and ‘D’ and other series of funding too in Bengaluru firms, said the Minister on Saturday.

“Judicial time is a valuable public resource. Every frivolous or misconceived invocation of constitutional jurisdiction results in diversion of time from genuinely deserving litigants,” said the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court while imposing a cost of ₹50,000 on a man from Theni district who filed a petition with an unusual prayer: permission to conduct daily protests till the ‘World War’ ends.
