The grantee will build on the already existing partnerships with the private sector and government agencies in West Bengal and Sikkim To focus on a results-oriented entrepreneurship program to directly train a cohort of 100-120 women entrepreneurs, preferably with a background in STEM education, tech-enabled
business, or willing to explore use of technology in a social enterprise, across multiple cities, over a period of 18 months.
This will be done through a hybrid module of online Dreambuilder training and in-person boot camp and “shark tank” styled pitch-mentoring sessions to promote business growth and expansion, adoption of innovation and technology in existing enterprises, and funding opportunities.
