Great Going Oracle!<\/h1>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Recently, Oracle<\/a> announced the first group of start-up finalists for the Oracle Startup Cloud Accelerator Program, which was launched in April 2016 at Oracle Cloud World in Mumbai. The program acts as a catalyst to boost India’s startup ecosystem as well as support the country\u2019s Digital India initiatives. In such a short span, the program has received a great response from tech and tech-related startups.<\/p>\n

The Oracle Startup Cloud Accelerator is a first-of-its-kind global startup accelerator initiative by Oracle. Oracle India is leading the initiative for the company. The initiative targets midsize firms, including MSMEs micro, small, medium-sized enterprises and startups, which are recognized as a highly vibrant and dynamic sector of the Indian economy that contributes more than 37 percent to India\u2019s GDP.<\/p>\n

To review each application, a panel of judges that included the advisors and mentors of the program as well as senior executives from Oracle were appointed. The judges were to rigorously evaluate the business concept, a level of innovation, scalability and potential to solve real-life problems for their customers. Moreover, the startups should also make a difference to their target audience. After all these, panelists chose these five start-ups:<\/p>\n

ExpertRec:<\/strong> a plug-n-play search and recommendation engine for online marketplaces in an easy to use SaaS integration. The customers need to add a single line of code to enable these advanced features on their website.<\/p>\n

Niyo Solutions<\/strong>: a Fin-Tech startup focused on alternate payment mechanisms.<\/p>\n

Ray iCare:<\/strong> an artificial intelligence device used for monitoring Epilepsy, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and Cardiac Attacks in sleep. It can be installed on a wall. The device will notify attacks to caretakers through a mobile app.<\/p>\n

Tydy:<\/strong> a mobile-first, automated employee onboarding platform. It gives executives a clear picture of the performance of the onboarding process that was never quantified before.<\/p>\n

Vear:<\/strong> an AR\/VR technology platform that is device agnostic. It can be used by brands to distribute their content, campaigns and more to end users through augmented\/virtual reality.<\/p>\n
