Modi on Tuesday said that India has emerged as the third major player in Start Up echo system and urged global investors and especially from the Gulf region to take benefit of India's Start Up echo system.

"Today India is the third major player in Start Up echo system and in two-tier and three tier cities also. Start Ups are coming up fast. Several Start Ups in India are investing overseas. Therefore, I urge all global players to take benefit of India's Start Up echo system," the PM said delivering keynote address at the third session of the Future Investment Institute forum in Riyadh.

I am extremely grateful to the people and Government of Saudi Arabia for their excellent hospitality. I am honoured to have got an opportunity to address @FIIKSA. Interacting with the top leadership of Saudi Arabia was also very productive.
