      With Hatch joining the ranks of its international organizing partners, the initiative in Sri Lanka aims to empower local female entrepreneurs as well as technologies positively impacting women. Sharing her experience, Co-Founder & CTO of Resync, Jayantika Soni (She Loves Tech 2019 Global Startup Competition Finalist & Singapore Winner) described the initiative saying, “She Loves Tech was one of the best experiences for me. I was surrounded by the most powerful women in their field, building startups against all odds.”

      Since its official launch a year ago, Hatch has developed an established track record of supporting startups. Notably, this includes initiatives focused on startups led by women founders.

Reflecting upon their success with the workshops, Co-Founder and Director at Hatch, Brindha Selvadurai, highlighted the resilience of women founders in the programme, stating, “Despite the challenges posed by the lockdown, the founders have been keen to learn pitching, marketing, finance, negotiation, and other skills how to scale their business through the programme.”
