1. Preamble

a) Demographic dividend is one of India’s

biggest strengths. However, our demographic

dividend can be leveraged only when a

suitable eco-system is made available for the

youth to meaningfully deploy their energies,

skills and talents towards the nation building

and economic development processes. Hence

facilitating entrepreneurship, which in turn

leads to value creation and job creation, is

governance and a moral imperative which the

Government of Goa is unflinchingly

committed to. Hence the Government of Goa

has released this new Goa Startup policy,

which pertains to proliferation of start-ups

and unleashing of economic opportunities

across the state of Goa.

b) Goa is a popular urban state with the

highest per-capita GDP and enviable human

development indices. Goa’s cosmopolitan

culture, impressive infrastructure, quality

manpower, picturesque landscape, clean

environment and development orientation,

not only makes Goa an ideal base for

entrepreneurs to realise their dreams, but will

also play a key role in facilitating an

environment that is supportive and makes the

start-ups innovative and globally competitive.

It is towards this objective that this new Goa

Startup policy has been drafted.

c) One of the transformative factors of

Startups is their matchless potential to

exponentially scale up, leading to large scale

job & wealth creation. While the Government

is committed to promoting entrepreneurs

from Goa and generating employment for

Goans, the Government is equally committed

to inviting the best entrepreneurial talent and

the brightest innovative minds and the startup

ecosystem

enablers

like

Incubators,

Accelerators, Investors from outside Goa in

order to build a robust startup eco system

within the state.

d) The Government recognises that

education and skill development that is

aligned to the requirements of the industry

are vital for a robust startup eco-system.

Hence the Government is committed to

continuously improving the Goan Education

system, and providing Do IT Yourself course

to students of schools and university for

upgrading their skills.

e) In order to incentivise promising Startups

to be incorporated, registered in Goa and/or

operating from Goa, the Government of Goa,

on a case to case basis, can grant any

exemption beyond the scope of this policy, to

startups operating in the following areas with

a special focus on areas such as smart cities,

urban management, mining, tourism &

hospitality, gaming, waste management,

renewable energy, education, health care,

communication, and entertainment.

f) Building a lasting institutional framework

that changes the Startup landscape of Goa,

and makes the state an attractive Startup base

for entrepreneurs, involves a concentrated

strategy and robust implementation. Based on

the changing dynamics of the Startups,

entrepreneurs, human capital, industry and

other aspects related to the start-up

ecosystem, this policy will keep evolving and

remain proactively responsive to put Goa on

top of the Startup game.
