Nasscom Foundation is dedicated to creating employment opportunities for women entrepreneurs in rural areas, particularly those in agricultural, artisanal, and MSME businesses. Our goal is to empower rural women through technology and digital skills training, enabling them to make the most of technology and transition from digital literacy to entrepreneurship.

To achieve this, we provide specialised training and assistance in financial technology, government schemes, technology instruction, and skill enhancement. We believe that technology can be a game-changer for these entrepreneurs, providing them with support every step of the way and the tools they need to improve their livelihoods in a rapidly changing economy.

The programme is designed to be inclusive and accessible, ensuring that women from all backgrounds can benefit from our offerings. We believe that by empowering women entrepreneurs, we can create a more equitable and sustainable future for all. We are committed to using technology for social good, leveraging its power to support and uplift marginalised communities.
