#WISER2023#ACTForWomen initiated the Women in India’s Startup Ecosystem Report (WISER) on 16th January 2023 - #NationalStartupDay - with a resolute belief in the #startup ecosystem's potential to catalyse #genderequity in India.
Each of our 200+ participating startups met us with the conviction that they can, and must, do better for India's women. They shared data on successful practices, acknowledged their failures and agreed that there’s still a lot that needs to be done. But most of all, they met us with the commitment to leverage WISER's insights in building momentum for the path ahead 🚀
#WISER has truly been an effort by and for India’s startup ecosystem to move the needle on gender equity and we’re proud to present it to the world - a wellspring of actionable insights that hopes to empower #startups to advance #genderdiversity within their workplaces!
Our heartfelt gratitude to all the participating startups, who played a vital role in bringing WISER 2023 to life, and to our partners who have helped shape this report with unwavering passion and commitment ⭐
