#### Thoughts on Kerala's Tech Ecosystem: | ||
|
||
- The startup ecosystem in Kerala could support the local people and | ||
economy, without relying too much on Big Tech monopolies. | ||
- Integrating schools and universities with the industry will allow | ||
students to get involved from an early stage and specialise where they | ||
shine the most. In addition, reducing the importance of grades and | ||
encouraging students to innovate and collaborate with others will go a | ||
long way in improving the tech ecosystem in Kerala | ||
