“Women Enterpreneurs get less funding”

Kriti Aggarwal, Director at StoreHippo.com

The challenges of being a woman executive in a top role 

It is a challenge to maintain a work-life balance. I revere work and at the same time wish to focus on my family and home. It is a challenge to maintain my emotional balance in order to avoid a clash with business functions.

Educational Background
Masters in Textile and clothing

Family background
A business class family with roots embedded in ethics, loyalty, and firm commitment to work along with a practical cum professional outlook.

Working in male-dominated field of IT
At times it is a challenge since some men are still not ready to accept women at higher ranks/position. It hurts their ego and traditional outlook.

Does a Glass ceiling exist?
Yes. It does. Women entrepreneurs are not looked upon highly by many men and they are given less funding by investors/banks.

Hobbies
Reading, Yoga, Cooking, walking.

Future plan
To play a more constructive role in my business concern and also do CSR activities.
