Covid 19 Financial Assistance for Entrepreneurs in India

Covid 19 Financial Assistance for Entrepreneurs in India

Brihati Foundation's INC COVID-19 CHALLENGE (India). INC COVID-19 CHALLENGE is an initiative funded by Brihati Foundation to give opportunity to entrepreneurs of Gujarat (start-ups and MSMEs) who have the potential to come forward with solutions that can help in combating the crisis with financial assistance.

Brihati Foundation via .INC (Idea to Incorporation) aims to motivate young entrepreneurs to get started in entrepreneurship at an early stage.

With the intent of creating better societies and empowering communities, the foundation hopes to mentor entrepreneurs that have the ability to execute an idea that can make an impact on society.

The covid-19 pandemic is the defining global health crisis of time and the greatest challenge they have faced since a long time.

India is racing to slow the spread of the virus, however, the pandemic is moving like a wave— it is much more than a health crisis. By stressing everyone it touches, it is showing the potential to create devastating social and economic crises.

Gujarat is taking necessary steps to ensure that they are prepared well to continue to face the challenge and threat posed by the growing pandemic.

With active support of people, the Government is working along with hospitals, health carers, businesses and entrepreneurs to bring solutions.

However, with the recent record number of new positive cases every day, Gujarat is now one of the most affected states in the country.

They must, therefore, give more encouragement and support to entrepreneurs to come-up with faster and better solutions that can strengthen the crisis management and response.
