Brics Women’s Business Alliance urges supply chain access and scale for women-led entrepreneurship

The Brics Women’s Business Alliance, at the recent Brics Leadership Summit in New Delhi, has urged member states to open supply chains and scale women-led enterprises, presenting a policy road map that outlines four key priorities: procurement access, corporate value chains, care economy infrastructure, and workforce leadership.

Chairperson Avarna Jain emphasized that women’s economic empowerment is a core economic strategy, not just a sectoral issue, and stressed the need for stronger investor connections and digital tools, such as the Unified Payments Interface, to expand financial inclusion. The alliance aims to enable women to move from participation to leadership, from small enterprises to scale, and from success in one market to opportunities across Brics.
