SheThePeople to host its 9th Digital Women Awards at T-Hub, Telangana

The theme of the awards this year is “Access to Success,”. As women build small and big enterprises, one big gap they face is in the spotlight they truly deserve. From the intent of building the business to growing it to scale, stories of ‘how she did it’ are often left behind. The theme also serves as a reminder to the fact that the country doesn’t just need to pay more attention towards the work women entrepreneurs are doing but also celebrate them as role models and widen the opportunity and inspiration cycle for others.

Women struggle with finding work, stalled careers, lack of support and unequal pay. Providing them with equal access to opportunities isn’t just critical to them but also to the society as a whole. Creating the conditions for women to succeed and thrive is central to the journey of India’s growth story. Mahankali Srinivas Rao, the CEO of T-Hub, expressed his excitement about the event by saying, “This is one of the biggest awards for women entrepreneurs that aims to recognize women who are building businesses using the power of digital. As the country’s premier innovation hub, we are happy to support a movement to empower women and acknowledge their significant contributions to the digital landscape.”

Shaili Chopra, the founder of Gytree.com and SheThePeople, is the driving force behind the Digital Women Awards. She shared her vision, saying, “We believe women are bringing alive ideas for a new India with breakthroughs in digital and tech, transforming their lives and the nation’s potential. This new entrepreneurial energy is what can take India to the next level and put women at the forefront.”

Artificial intelligence is a special focus in this year’s awards and summit. There is interest in talking about its use for seamless tech to enable quick and stable solutions. AI is playing a critical role in climate change, crop and agri needs, animal husbandry, social impact, health, and content. At the Digital Women Awards, AI for Impact is a special category. Other categories include content creation, disruption, ecommerce, social impact, leadership, solopreneurship, marketing, and more.

You are encouraged to apply and tell us how you are building a scalable technology ecosystem.
