Nothing is more powerful than women writing their own curriculum and taking on the new chapters of their lives successfully. Seeking solutions with enthusiasm and embracing lessons head-on while fighting the social norms ruled by patriarchal approaches, many female powerhouses deserve a shout-out, especially in March when we celebrate International Women’s Day worldwide.
ScooNews reached out to two women heading their respective companies, that have taken the educational setting in India a notch up.

But more than that, we think it’s their ability to be unapologetic that makes them a brand in themselves. Do you agree?
