About us
Startup India is a flagship initiative of the Government of India, intended to build a strong eco-system for nurturing innovation and startups in the country that will drive sustainable economic growth and generate large scale employment opportunities. The government through this initiative aims to empower startups to grow through innovation and design and to consolidate and facilitate the startup ecosystem of the country. Contributing to the Prime Minister’s vision of an ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’, Startup India has been supporting entrepreneurs and transforming India into a country of job creators rather than job seekers. The National Startup Day, celebrated on January 16th every year, is an ode to commemorate the inception of Startup India and the wave of entrepreneurship in the nation. As we progress towards building the ‘New India’, Startup India is determined to take along the visionary entrepreneurs and budding startups to accelerate India’s growth journey. Fostering a fruitful culture of innovation in the country is a long and important journey. This initiative will go a significant way in reiterating Government of India’s commitment to making India the hub of innovation, design and Startups.

A financially empowered woman is a confident decision-maker, independent thinker, architect of her own future and a maker of modern India! And, our nation is taking the lead in building financially empowered women. I, Ajaita S., am really delighted to be handling PM Narendra Modi Ji’s social media handles on #WomensDay. I am the Founder and CEO of Frontier Markets. One issue that remained close to my heart was the challenges women face in rural areas. These challenges could be financial, access to infrastructure and more. Thus, I have spent the last two decades to mitigate this. And, I feel proud that not only have I been able to make a difference, I am also seeing many more women rising to the occasion and doing the same. In 2011, I founded Frontier Markets with a simple belief that if we support our rural women, no force will stop them from achieving the impossible. Our combined efforts have ensured a powerful network of thousands of women who are becoming self-reliant and giving livelihoods to other women. It is gladdening that over the last few years, there are very meaningful conversations happening on this subject. With things like bank coverage, social security, access to better healthcare and improved sanitation, women are finding it much easier to pursue their dreams and create value for society. Our emphasis has always been on integrating technology to ensure skilling and financial inclusion of women. It would amaze you all, the ease with which India’s women are adapting to technology. Our ‘Meri Saheli App’ is a small contribution to harnessing tech and AI to help rural women become entrepreneurs. It has also enabled the world to see the strengths of our women in diverse areas like agriculture, healthcare, consumer durables and financial literacy. Today, our nation can’t be ignored by the world. We are a promising market with an innovative spirit. And, this journey will get even stronger with women’s participation. I will urge all women to become a part of the India Story. A lot of women have shown how to break barriers and achieve this. My own experience says that the sky is the limit. Be self-reliant and give a better life to the future generations.
