Google on Thursday announced a new programme—Google Market Access Program—to help Indian startups expand into global markets.

The programme is designed to help Indian AI startups move from pilot projects to long-term global enterprise contracts. According to Google, many startups struggle at this stage despite having strong technology.

The announcements were made at the Google AI Startups Conclave in New Delhi. The new programme will focus on helping startups prepare for global enterprise customers, connect them with international business leaders, and offer overseas exposure through partnerships with ecosystem organisations. Applications for the programme are now open for eligible startups.
