Ask HN: Advice on the first steps for starting up in India
I am looking for any advice you guys can offer - especially from those who are based in India.
I'm deliberately not asking open ended question so that you can tell me the first thing that comes to your mind.
Thanks.

- kashrr 13y agoI came across this sometime back, http://www.startupvillage.in/about-us/ http://www.startupvillage.in/about-us/ Not sure how good or effective it is. What i have heard is that you start in a place like Bangalore or Pune where there is already a community and infrastructure around startups. And that it is just way harder to do it in other places (i am assuming this mainly pertains to attracting talent).

- cloudsuite 13y agoif you don't have a location preference, of course Bangalore makes a perfect choice. Can find good incubation facilities and loads of advisers which are key. Also good access to Angels and VCs makes it easy to raise seed funding
