To support diversity and innovation across the business, Dentsu Aegis Network along with its digital performance agency iProspect, have formalised an initiative to mentor female start-ups in India.
 
The initiative Female Foundry aims to drive diversity and inclusion in business. It provides access to tools, training, connections and resources, empowering female entrepreneurs to thrive in today’s complex digital economy.

helps empower female entrepreneurs, high-level skill development and professional help in securing funding for the next phase of their start-ups.
 
In India, Rubeena Singh, CEO, iProspect India will be running the initiative with an extended
leadership team from across Dentsu Aegis Network and strategic business partners which include
clients and other third parties.

Ashish Bhasin, CEO Greater South, Dentsu Aegis Network and chairman & CEO India, said, “DAN as a network has been at the forefront of encouraging and supporting entrepreneurs. Women play an important role in every aspect of business today – from leading companies to building new ventures. To succeed in what one believes in, needs constant learning.”
