Entrepreneur
India
An Engineer and Post Graduate in Finance by qualification with an entrepreneurial spirit.
I(Sakshi) have been into the startup ecosystem for more than 10 years working with multiplestartups, leading a team to ensure growth of the startups I am involved with. But life has not been easy, it has always been a roller coaster ride, there was a time when I went into depression and started feeling that there is no life ahead after my father but my family helped me to understand that we have to stand on our own and do something for ourselves. Since I always had that passion of doing something of my own but due to one or the other reasons couldn’t, that was the time, I realized that there must be so many people like us who want to do something of their own but are lacking resources or opportunities. and that was the time I along with my brother started our venture, startupvisors where we provide one stop platform for all the startup solutions. With startupvisors, we work towards empowering people to have their own startup so that they can be self-dependent. Through our online and offline presence and partnerships with multiple public and private organizations like Startup India, MSME Mart, IITs, Shopify, Payoneer to name a few, we already have a community of 50,000+ members. Professionally, I have been trained by IIT Delhi into entrepreneurship and have been awarded with the Female Founder Fellowship by a Silicon Valley Incubator i.e Founder Institute. Also a Tedx speaker and keynote speaker with institutes like IIT Bombay, Delhi University and NMIMS. Have been officially associated with Govt. of India through its two initiatives named Startup India and Atal Innovation Mission(NITI Aayog) as a mentor and have successfully mentored 1,000+ startups/entrepreneurs in their journey. I feel privileged to provide free mentoring on a regular basis to weaker sections of our society so that they can stand at par with the world.
