Goel commented on this issue saying, “The proximity to venture capitalists companies is another added advantage.”

India is a startup friendly country and thus a number of startup ventures like Flipkart, Snapdeal, Zomato etc. have been started.

Hence, it is clear that these startup ventures have sufficient funds to pay the experienced professionals.
