There are about 16 million businesses owned by women that provide employment to about 30 million people. Over 10 million working women in India have set their priorities in excelling into corporate world at leadership roles. About 15-17000 Startups out of 90,000 Startups in India are led by women. In the Indian MSME sector, women-led businesses are more than 20% and contribute around about 25% of the labour force. Even the IMF estimates that equal participation of women in the workforce can increase India’s GDP by about 30%. Even globally, women control about $20 trillion in annual consumer spending, and that figure could climb as high as $28 trillion in the next five years. Women produce about 60 percent of the world’s goods and services and are also the largest buyers and investors.
