Women Leading the Start-up Revolution in Maharashtra! Inaugurated the 'Innovation Mahakumbha 2025' organised by SNDT Women’s University, Mumbai, today in collaboration with Ministry of Education, GoI and Department of Higher and Technical Education, Maharashtra. It is remarkable that when women in the United Kingdom received the right to vote in 1918, India already had an entire women’s university established two years earlier, in 1916 by Bharat Ratna Maharshi Dhondo Keshav Karve, reflecting his true progressive vision. The Government of Maharashtra has announced a new Start up, Innovation and Entrepreneurship Policy aimed at building more incubators, creating platforms, and nurturing entrepreneurs. Many start ups in Maharashtra have grown into successful large scale industries through these initiatives. Hon PM Narendra Modi Ji’s vision of 'Start up India' in 2014 transformed India into the world’s third largest start up ecosystem, now rapidly advancing toward the second position. Notably, 45% of Maharashtra’s start ups are led by women, a testament to the rising power of women entrepreneurs. Women Innovators will have the decisive role in order to make Maharashtra a trillion dollar economy and India a five trillion dollar economy. Minister Mangal Prabhat Lodha ji, Vice Chancellor of SNDT Women's University Prof. Ujjwala Chakradeo and other dignitaries were present.
