Vodafone India has introduced the Ready Start-up Kit to grab business from Indian start-ups across the country.
Vodafone India will offer complimentary access to Vodafone’s IoT Managed Connectivity Platform, expert support and rental free package for 6 months for 50 IoT SIMs to develop and deploy their solution.
Vodafone India will also offer complimentary access to three curated cloud-based business apps for one month – Vodafone CRM, Vodafone Mobile Workforce Essentials, G-Suite. These solutions can help start-ups to boost their productivity, efficiency and enhance their ability to engage with their employees and customers.
Vodafone claims that it is the only Indian telecom operator with a completely online Cloud applications marketplace — Vodafone CloudStore.
Vodafone competes with telecom operators such as Bharti Airtel, Idea Cellular, Reliance Jio, BSNL, Reliance Communications, Tata Teleservices and Aircel.
Start-ups selecting the Vodafone IoT solution will be able to increase awareness of their products and services and engage with their customers using Vodafone’s Programmatic Marketing solutions, which includes up to 50,000 SMS free package for marketing.
“The Ready Start-up Kit brings forth Vodafone’s global experience as an enabler of start-ups and reinforces our commitment to this community. We expect it to be a game changer with a suite of solutions that will empower start-ups to catalyse innovation and fast track growth,” said Sunil Sood, MD and CEO of Vodafone India.
Vodafone Group said it is the first global IoT mobile provider to exceed 50 million IoT connections. Recently, TelecomLead.com has recognized Vodafone for its initiatives in the IoT space.
