Ministry launches Start Your Business Page on NCS portal

Uber was introduced as one of the first entrepreneurship partners on the page and the memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed with Uber in February 2016. 

 

Speaking on the occasion, Shankar Agarwal, Secretary, Ministry of Labour and Employment said, “Participation from the industry is essential to create a wide range of entrepreneurial opportunities for the unemployed youth of the country. This initiative aims to make it more convenient for an individual to start his own business. We welcome companies like Uber, who are revolutionizing the way traditional employment works, by offering flexible and high earning opportunities on its platform. We look forward to make this a vibrant platform for entrepreneurs to share their success stories and motivate others in joining the entrepreneurial endeavours”

 

The National Career Services Portal (www.ncs.gov.in) was dedicated to the nation by Prime Minister Modi in 2015. 

 

The platform is expected to facilitate job-seekers and employers to come together on this platform through dynamic, efficient and responsive job matching.

 

Thuan Pham, Chief Technology Officer, Uber Technologies said, “We are excited by the progressive move of the Ministry to embrace such collaborations to boost India’s economy and offer a variety of new work and flexible opportunities that go beyond traditional employment.”
