Google for Startups Accelerator: Women Founders is back with its second edition in India, and applications are now open. The program is designed to enable women entrepreneurs in India who are using technology to solve complex problems and are making a positive impact on society. The three-month program includes mentorship, workshops, access to resources and networks for startups from across all sectors, including but not limited to healthcare, education, finance, and e-commerce.
The program includes specific modules to support women entrepreneurs in areas such as seeking mentorship and advice, hiring talent and tapping networks for help, with the intention of building confidence where cultural conditioning can sometimes create self-doubt.
Additionally, selected participants will receive support from experts and mentors both from Google and external networks in areas such as technology, product strategy, people, growth and fundraising. The program also includes access to Google’s global network of mentors, investors and industry leaders.
The first cohort of the Google for Startups Accelerator: Women Founders program that recently graduated, included startups working on a range of innovative solutions, such as AI-powered diagnostic tools for healthcare, an app for menstrual hygiene management, a platform for rural artisans to sell their products online and many more.
The program is a great opportunity for women entrepreneurs to receive support and guidance as they navigate the challenges of scaling their startups.
So if you’re a woman entrepreneur in India who is using technology to create a positive impact, and range anywhere from being bootstrapped to Series A funding, don’t miss this opportunity to apply for the Google for Startups Accelerator: Women Founders program. Applications open until June 4th, 2023.
