Economic Times · 15d

The Indian startup and venture investor ecosystem is hopeful for stronger ties and increased funding between India and the US under President Donald Trump. The startup industry is monitoring Trump's policies regarding inflation and their impact on the US economy. Trump's anti-China stance could benefit the Indian venture ecosystem, potentially making it a preferred investment destination. Additionally, concerns about increased taxes on American companies under Kamala Harris have been alleviated with Trump's presidency. Venture investors are expecting more stability and long-term investment plans after a period of uncertainty due to the elections. However, the inflationary impacts of Trump's policies and his stance on immigration and trade are still a concern. Overall, there is optimism about reduced investments in China and increased focus on sectors like AI and semiconductors in India.
