Shaili Chopra, founder, SheThePeople, kickstarted the initiative talking of what motivated her to set up Digital Women Awards and what it aspires to achieve with every passing year: "We've had a tremendous run of connecting with a large number of women entrepreneurs across India, and the kind of concepts they are coming up with every single day and then turning them into the reality of business, finding ways to do more with their ideas beyond hobbies, to turn solopreneurs, use opportunities."

Elaborating on how the channel consistently gives centre stage to low-profile women doing business and boosting their reach, Chopra says, "We have been at the forefront of bringing stories, sharing network access and opportunities with women through the SheThePeople network. This year, we're putting a spotlight on the idea of #MakeSmallStrong. We talk about how small businesses can be supported. DWA doesn't just celebrate these women but also encourages everyone to buy small."
