• The Udyam Sakhi Portal, launched in March 2018 by the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME), is proving to be a vital platform for women entrepreneurs across the country.
• In a recent written reply to the Rajya Sabha, the Minister of State highlighted how the portal is enabling women to start, build, and expand their businesses.
• Through services such as entrepreneurship learning tools, incubation facilities, fundraising training, mentorship, investor interactions, and market surveys, the portal is creating opportunities for women to become self-reliant and self-sufficient.
• By offering financial information, policies, and schemes in the MSME sector, Udyam Sakhi has become a strong support system for women-led enterprises in India.
