The enormous emphasis placed on improving
online infrastructure and online activity particularly in the Banking and
Finance sector (with
initiatives such as Jan Dhan Yojna) has a
huge potential to transform India in its digital platforms enabling a cashless, paperless and presence-less
service delivery system powered by India-Stack. "India Stack" is believed to be
instrumental in transforming India at large in the next 5-7 years. It provides
a great opportunity for startups and potential entrepreneurs to solve India's
hard problems in Financial Inclusion, Healthcare, etc.
To
discuss this and to understand how India
Stack - a set of digital public goods, together make it easier for
innovators to introduce digital services in India across a range of sectors,
GPPI-CPR organised an interactive discussion on “Digitizing India: Cashless, paperless and presence-less service delivery – the future of
India?” on
December 14, 2015. 28 prominent
