Unlocking The Google digital Unlocked

2017 January has a lot of remarkable events for the world to remember, one of the such and most important event in the field of digital marketing is the Google’s launch of Digital Unlocked. Digital Unlocked is an initiative by Google in collaboration with the Indian School of Business and Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology to promote digital awareness and to help small-scale businesses and startups by providing online as well as offline training to go digital in India.

Digital Unlocked is created to provide a starting push for small as well as medium business in India. They believe that technology plays an important role in the growth of the small and medium business by providing them access to new market and explore new ideas by digitizing their business and power utilization of the internet. In simple words, the main objective is to provide knowledge and a better understanding of how the digital world works and how anyone can take the offline business online. Many of us have, hands-on experience in the digital world but not a clear picture of it, so this will be useful for newbie as well as experienced people to get a clear picture of how digital world works.

The Internet and digital technology will be an engine of growth for the Indian economy. Today, anyone can become an entrepreneur, a developer, or a creator, but it is important that they have the right tools and skills to digitize.
