80% of women entrepreneurs self-finance their biz in India

 

Notwithstanding the various government schemes that provide financial aid, 8 out of 10 women entrepreneurs across the country are self-financing their businesses, says a report.

 

According to a report by sheatwork, a knowledge hub for women entrepreneurs, self finance is a major source of funding for 80 per cent of women entrepreneurs.

 

"While significant efforts have been made by the Central and State governments as well as independent agencies through the years in India, there still exists a huge gap in awareness and promotion levels of women entrepreneurship," sheatwork.com founder Ruby Sinha said.  (PTI: November 22, 2017)
