India, 28 November, 2024 – TiE Women, an initiative by TiE Global, is transforming the entrepreneurial landscape for women worldwide. Now in its 5th edition, the program has entered its accelerator phase, culminating in the global finale at the TiE Global Summit (TGS) in Bengaluru this December. TiE Women empowers female entrepreneurs at every stage of their journey, leveraging TiE’s expansive network of 64 global chapters. This network provides access to essential resources, mentorship, investor connections, and networking opportunities, all aimed at advancing gender equality, in alignment with SDG 5. The program offers equity-free cash prizes to fuel the growth of women-led businesses globally.
At the core of TiE Women’s success are five key pillars: Learning, Mentoring, Access to Funding, Scalability, and Community. These pillars guide women entrepreneurs from early-stage development through to scaling their businesses. By creating a safe, inclusive environment, TiE Women offers more than just financial backing; it opens doors to a global network of mentors, investors, and peers, ensuring long-term growth and visibility. Through workshops, events, and international exposure, it ensures that women-led startups are equipped with the tools necessary to thrive in the competitive global market.
In 2023, TiE Women embarked on a transformative three-year partnership with the Motwani Jadeja Foundation, led by Asha Jadeja, a Silicon Valley-based venture capitalist and philanthropist. This collaboration provides founders with unparalleled opportunities to engage with one of the world’s most innovative ecosystems. The partnership offers access to invaluable resources, networks, and growth opportunities, empowering them to scale their ventures and succeed in the global marketplace.
Asha Jadeja, who has invested in over 200 technology startups, is a passionate advocate for breaking societal barriers and enabling women to lead in business. “Exponential growth is possible when we combine technology-enabled entrepreneurship with world-class education, and strong women’s leadership. We must dismantle the barriers that have long held women back and create environments where women-led ventures can innovate without limitations,” she says. “Our partnership with TiE Women enables us to transform challenges into opportunities, equipping women with the tools and networks they need to drive exponential change in their industries and communities,” she adds. Her vision aligns seamlessly with TiE Women’s mission of providing a supportive space for female entrepreneurs to thrive.
This partnership between TiE Women and the Motwani Jadeja Foundation exemplifies how industry leaders can collaborate to create meaningful change. By offering mentorship, capital, and global exposure, this collaboration propels women-led businesses to new heights. Together, they are paving the way for a new era of entrepreneurial leadership that is inclusive, innovative, and unconstrained by gender.
