“I became a part of the Mann Deshi Udyogini program, where I learnt how to set up and run a business and how to sell to customers. Because of this education, I have been able to set up a business of my own which manufactures and sells musical instruments that match up to customers’ every need. Thanks to the program, I am proud to call myself an entrepreneur.” – Savrupalli Shinde from Mhaswad.
Mann Deshi Udhyogini is an initiative that serves as the first business school for underprivileged rural women. This program equips women with business skills required to start a venture of their own and become businesswomen in their own right.
Accenture teamed up with Mann Deshi and provided them with MIS support which helped them standardize their training initiative, thereby, making operations smoother. It infused a new ray of hope in an initiative that will enable over 2 million women.
