FLO Bangalore, under the leadership of Chairperson Dekysi Yangtso Chawla, organised a startup and leadership session titled Vision to Venture for the women entrepreneurs at the Deloitte office in Bangalore. Revenue-generating women entrepreneurs were invited to be a part of this event. Speakers, Ms. Tiyasa Khanra – Partner, Monitor Deloitte, and Ms. Prachi Agarwal – Associate Director, Monitor Deloitte, led the session to deliver a structured, hands-on roadmap to building scalable and investor-ready business models.
As a part of FLO’s National Initiatives on Start-up Cell, Entrepreneurship, and Leadership, FLO Bangalore Startup Vertical inaugurated its Invest Quarter with the Vision to Venture transformative workshop.
