The evening kicked off with a powerhouse panel featuring venture capital leaders Svetha Ravi, Shreya Bhatnagar, Devika Bade and Sandhya Thukaram. These industry veterans tackled crucial topics like overcoming investor bias, securing funding and building networks. From strategies to combat imposter syndrome to navigating regulatory challenges, their candid insights empowered aspiring women entrepreneurs.

The spotlight then turned to an extraordinary lineup of founders: Dr. Shwetha, a doctor, psychologist and educational activist with Sweet U Turn Ventures; Supriya Jambunathan, a writer and content strategist; Mythri Kumar, Founder & CEO of TimbuckDo; Supreet Shah, Co-founder & CTO of Woloo; and Shilpa K, an entrepreneur passionate about innovation.
The fireside chat was a dynamic exchange of raw, unfiltered experiences, with these trailblazers sharing lessons from their journeys. Their stories of resilience and grit inspired the audience to challenge the status quo and drive meaningful impact in their industries.

The event wasn’t just about discussions—it was about the energy in the room. Attendees connected over insightful conversations, delicious snacks and themed cupcakes, making networking both meaningful and fun. They left with new connections, fresh perspectives and thoughtfully curated gift hampers. Topics like work-life balance, leadership stereotypes and cross-border expansion (including tips for tapping into the US market) sparked engaging discussions in a warm, celebratory atmosphere.
