Health Minister Veena George said on Saturday that Kerala was intensifying efforts to promote entrepreneurship with parallel focus on gender equality.
“The government’s vision and policy make it compulsory to implement steps that encourage women to enter entrepreneurship and innovation in stronger numbers. We have been increasingly organising programmes to up-skill and re-skill talents to increase their confidence,” she said while inaugurating online the valedictory ceremony of the two-day conclave, ‘Women Startup Summit 4.0, 2022’, of the Kerala Startup Mission (KSUM).
Around 500 delegates are attending the summit, which hosted nearly 30 live sessions addressed by 80-plus speakers that included founders and managing partners, predominantly women, of a range of successful companies, according to a release.
