Empowering women will not only provide a platform to boost India’s growth potential but will create positive social externalities for generations to come.”

Stating the constraints a woman entrepreneur has to face, she further added, “To encourage women entrepreneurs, we need to have viable policy reforms. Adequate checks and balances are important to ensure implementation of these policies to prevent malpractices and create a holistic enabling environment. Capacity building initiatives need to be extensively promoted like financial literacy, vocational training and education opportunities.  A safe and conducive work environment is also an enabler and due measures must be taken in this regard.”
