Abstract:This paper investigates the intersection of entrepreneurship opportunities for women, the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, and the startup ecosystem. With a primary focus on NEP 2020’s implications for women’s empowerment in entrepreneurship, the research explores the policy’s provisions and their impact on fostering a supportive environment for women entrepreneurs. By analyzing key elements such as entrepreneurship education integration, infrastructure development, and industry collaboration facilitated by NEP 2020, this study aims to understand how these initiatives contribute to the growth of women-led startups. Through empirical evidence and qualitative analysis, the study identifies challenges and opportunities within the startup ecosystem for women entrepreneurs and proposes strategies to leverage NEP 2020 effectively. The findings contribute to the discourse on gender-inclusive entrepreneurship policies and provide insights for policymakers, educators, and stakeholders to further empower women in the entrepreneurial landscape.
