Shiprocket, India's leading e-commerce enablement platform, announces the 5th edition of 'Aarambh,' its flagship initiative dedicated to empowering women entrepreneurs. Aligned with Shiprocket's vision to redefine India's e-commerce landscape, Aarambh 2024 seeks to empower aspiring women entrepreneurs by providing a platform to pitch their innovative business ideas to a distinguished panel of investors and venture capitalists.

Commencing from February 26, 2024, Aarambh 2024 extends a warm invitation to women entrepreneurs nationwide, encouraging them to register and nominate themselves for an opportunity to present their ideas before the esteemed jury. In India, women constitute just 14% of entrepreneurs, overseeing 20% of MSMEs among 58.5 million enterprises. In line with this year's theme of "Invest in women: Accelerate progress", Shiprocket’s primary focus is to create a platform for women-led SMEs in India to showcase their entrepreneurial brilliance, catalyzing the growth of dynamic enterprises.

Beyond the competitive aspect, Aarambh 2024 offers participants a unique chance to network with experienced professionals, investors, and potential business partners. In addition to coveted cash prizes, participants also have the opportunity to receive Shiprocket shipping credits, providing valuable support on their journey to business success.

Saahil Goel, MD & CEO, Shiprocket said, "The Aarambh initiative has been a resounding success over the years, and it is heartening to witness the impactful contributions of women entrepreneurs to the growth of India’s commerce. Our nation's women have extraordinary potential, and we are excited to see what new and disruptive ideas will be presented during Aarambh 2024."
