The company

What they're building

WENA runs financial literacy programs for Indian women, combining tailored awareness workshops for corporates, colleges, NGOs and government bodies with a direct-to-consumer online video course sold for a one-time fee. The curriculum spans mutual funds and SIPs, insurance, emergency funds, retirement planning and — notably — fraud awareness.

Why now

Financial products in India are proliferating faster than the confidence to use them, and women remain underserved by conventional advice channels. WENA is betting that education, not another app, is the missing layer.

The backstory

Founded by Nitu Sharma on the principle that when women understand, manage and grow their money, families and communities get more resilient. The stated ambition is to reach one million women across India.

Why this team

The company is founder-led by Nitu Sharma, whose testimonials point to concrete outcomes — such as helping women separate personal and business finances. Beyond that, the founding team's fuller pedigree isn't yet public.
