Gaurav Munjal, the CEO of Unacademy, calls Bengaluru as ultimate tech hub
He drew comparisons between Bengaluru, Mumbai, Delhi on their status as "tech hubs"
Mumbai and Delhi cannot attain the status of being a tech hub like Bengaluru
Gaurav Munjal, the CEO of Unacademy, drew comparisons between Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Delhi, particularly regarding their status as “tech hubs.”
He staunchly advocated for Bengaluru, urging young professionals to gravitate toward the city at the outset of their careers. In a recent social media post, Munjal asserted, “Mumbai and Delhi cannot attain the status of tech hubs, no matter how vigorously they endeavour. The entrenched network effects of Bengaluru are simply too robust to be undermined.”
Furthermore, he advised aspiring individuals to focus solely on Bengaluru when contemplating startup endeavours, emphasizing, “If you’re embarking on your entrepreneurial journey, Bengaluru is unequivocally the place to be. Don’t even consider alternatives.” However, this stance triggered a spectrum of opinions, with some users dissenting while others echoed his sentiments.
One user intriguingly remarked that Bengaluru uniquely possesses the cultural milieu conducive to tech-centric growth, a vital ingredient seemingly lacking in Delhi’s bureaucratic atmosphere and Mumbai’s industrial ethos.
Mumbai and Delhi cannot become Tech Hubs how much ever people try.
Bangalore’s Network Effects are too deep to be broken.
Bangalore is the place to be if you’re starting up. Don’t even think about any other place.

In 2023, Bengaluru secured the 20th spot in Startup Genome’s global startup ecosystem report, a testament to its burgeoning entrepreneurial landscape.
Noteworthy startups such as Swiggy, Ola, Zerodha, and Flipkart have flourished in Bengaluru, bolstering its reputation as India’s premier startup nucleus.
Additionally, the Karnataka state government proudly champions Bengaluru as the nation’s preeminent hub for startup innovation.
