Women Entrepreneurship Platform (WEP), NITI Aayog
From Women Entrepreneurship Platform (wep.gov.in) by NITI Aayog, Government of India Platform + directory
Why we picked it
WEP is the official government front door for women founders, a single platform aggregating incubation, mentorship, funding access, and partner schemes. For women-led startups it's the fastest way to find support built specifically for you rather than piecing it together from generic lists.
- NITI Aayog's official platform connecting women entrepreneurs to funding, mentorship, incubation, and compliance help.
- Aggregates women-focused schemes and partner programmes so you can stack a general scheme with a women-specific top-up.
- Many state startup policies add extra seed grants and higher reimbursements for women-led startups, worth pairing with WEP.
- Free to join; use it as a discovery hub, then apply to the specific scheme or partner it points you to.
