President Droupadi Murmu has urged women entrepreneurs to identify other enterprising women and think of new ways to support them in their journey of empowerment.
She said there are many women who dream of being financially independent, but they do not know what path they should take to achieve this goal.
Interacting with a group of women, who are founders and co-founders of leading startups and unicorns, at the Rashtrapati Bhavan , Murmu said their success should create a ripple effect so that “we can hear such success stories from all parts of the country”.
We should resolve to work together to build an India where every woman is empowered and every young woman moves forward with confidence to fulfil her dreams, she said.
The president urged the women entrepreneurs to identify other enterprising women and think of new ways to support them in their journey of empowerment.
Thursday’s meeting took place under the initiative — “The President with the People” — that aims to establish a deeper connection with people and recognise their contributions.
During the interaction, the president said these women entrepreneurs have changed the Indian business environment.
From tech startups to social enterprises, their work gives an impressive insight into the diverse dimensions of Indian women’s capabilities in the world of entrepreneurship, she said.
