With funds from the US Mission in India, US Department of State, TiE Global is hosting a three day free workshop as a part of recently launched project AIRSWEEE (All-India Road Show on Women’s Economic Empowerment through Entrepreneurship). The aim of this workshop is to support aspiring women from Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities in India.
Under the project, TiE Global will conduct 5 workshops across 5 cities in India, which includes Coimbatore (Tamil Nadu), Warangal (Telangana), Jaipur (Rajasthan), Nagpur (Maharashtra) and Durgapur (West Bengal). The three-day workshop will kick-start from third week of February 2017 in Coimbatore and Warangal followed by other three cities in March 2017.
The program will enrol 25 aspiring women entrepreneurs in each city, selected through a rigorous screening process. These 125 mentees will then be introduced to India and US based mentors, who will guide the participants on various aspects of entrepreneurship. After these workshops, 5 participants from each city will receive intensive mentoring for an additional 6 months to develop some of their ideas into sustainable businesses. All 125 participants will be invited to join TiE’s robust eco-system as members.
TiE Global has invited applications for its workshops. Interested participants can log on to http://women.tie.org/menteeRegister.html for registration starting today and last date to register for this workshop is 27th January 2017.
