Bengaluru: Sensing the need for greater encouragement for women entrepreneurs, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai is keen to establish a financial institution to exclusively help women entrepreneurs that would cater to the needs of women from Sthree Shakthi Sanghas in villages to big women entrepreneurs.
Inaugurating the “Together We Grow” conclave organised as part of the International Women's Entrepreneurship Day, Bommai said, “I have thought for a long time. All Sthree Shakthi Sanghas are given seed money to engage in different activities. But to help them or any woman entrepreneur, we need a great financial institution. I am talking to the Finance Department to create a financial institution exclusively for women entrepreneurs that would cater to Sthree Shakti Sanghas in a village for major projects, which women can handle.”
