In the last decade, women entrepreneurship in India has witnessed a massive advancement, with many women joining the ranks of prominent startups. While innovators like Kiran Majumdar-Shaw remind us that nothing can stop them from pursuing their dreams, emerging unicorn entrepreneurs like Nykaa's Falguni Nayar are carrying the trend forward, breaking all gender stereotypes. There are nearly 16 million women-led businesses in India (20% of total businesses in India). Women's Entrepreneurship holds significant potential to accelerate the economic development of India.
