About UdyamStree
Encouraging Women to Start their
Entrepreneurial Journey
Entrepreneurial Journey
An initiative by EdelGive Foundation, UdyamStree is a launchpad for those ambitious women who dream to start their own enterprises but do not have enough family or financial support. We believe that economic independence is a major component of women empowerment. Women-led businesses currently provide direct employment to an estimated 22 to 27 million people. Growth in the number and size of women-owned businesses could generate 150 to 170 million additional jobs by 2030.
Understanding the importance of finding a solution to prevalent problems that hinder women’s economic growth in different parts of the country, especially rural India, #UdyamStree Campaign was launched by EdelGive Foundation in October 2020. Our ‘Landscape study on Women Entrepreneurship’ (to be hyperlinked with a page that leads to the complete report) renders a detailed insight into the different factors that influence women’s entrepreneurial journeys in India.
Creating a Platform for Collective Action
Engaging and partnering with corporates, funders, influencers, and experts which could bring change at community and policy level.
Information Dissemination
Building awareness on existing state of women entrepreneurship and information on schemes and entitlements which could help aspiring women entrepreneurs in realizing their dreams.
Inspiring Women Entrepreneurs
Inspirational stories of women from underprivileged backgrounds who realised their dreams of entrepreneurship. Read on to know more on how these women dared to break the glass ceiling and successfully started their own business enterprises.
