The workshop will help to organize resources and augment the strength of women participants to help them to reach their full potential. Such events and workshops act as an enabling factor for the social and economic advancement of women and society at large.The workshop is open for aspiring women entrepreneurs and those startups that are recognized with the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) with at least one female founder.
