About Women's Business Incubation Program

WBIP works with women entrepreneurs to launch and grow digital businesses. Once selected, a founder can take part at one of three lengths: a one-day workshop, a five-day training programme, or a sixty-day incubation. Founders from anywhere can apply, but selected founders are expected to be based at the WBIP office in Thiruvananthapuram for the incubation period, with a virtual option for those who cannot relocate.

What you get

  • Office and coworking space with basic amenities and connectivity
  • Mentoring and networking with industry leaders
  • Classes on entrepreneurship
  • Pitching events where founders present their businesses

Who can apply

  • Women entrepreneurs only — individuals, groups and organizations
  • Applicants must be 18 or older
  • Open to women entrepreneurs from anywhere; selected founders locate at the Thiruvananthapuram office, or take the virtual option

How selection works: Shortlisting from the applicant pool, then a telephone and/or in-person interview, then a binding agreement. Applicants are notified by email.
