Women empowerment is one of our top priorities. We believe that this initiative will also make a significant contribution to ensuring equal participation of women in digital business and eliminating gender inequality from society, which will also ensure a digital lifestyle for all men and women. Moreover, if women are employed as entrepreneurs, the number of financial inclusion among women will increase.”
