In the dynamic world of entrepreneurship, where balancing business ambitions with the demands of motherhood can often seem like an insurmountable challenge, the New Age Mompreneurs (NAM) community stands as a beacon of support and empowerment. Founded on October 1, 2020, by Ankita Sheel Gupta, a visionary mompreneur and mother of twins, NAM has quickly evolved into a thriving network of over 300 accomplished mom entrepreneurs. This vibrant community is dedicated to providing the support, guidance, and resources necessary for mothers to succeed in their business ventures while navigating the complexities of family life.
A Vision of Support and Solidarity Ankita Sheel Gupta's journey from a successful Chartered Accountant with 18 years of industry experience to the founder of NAM is nothing short of inspiring. Having honed her skills at Deloitte and later transforming a struggling travel business into a thriving enterprise, Ankita understands the unique challenges faced by mompreneurs. Her personal experience of juggling business ambitions with the demands of motherhood motivated her to create a community where mom entrepreneurs could find solace, inspiration, and practical support.
NAM was born out of this vision, driven by the belief that moms have an innate understanding of each other's challenges and possess the strength to support one another. The community offers a non-judgmental environment where members can share their experiences, seek advice, and collaborate on overcoming common hurdles. Through numerous meet-ups and exhibitions, NAM has fostered a culture of collaboration and mutual growth.
Celebrating Success: Achievemets and Impact Since its inception, NAM has organized over 50 successful events, including four mega exhibitions, demonstrating its commitment to fostering a thriving network for mompreneurs. The community's dedication to empowering women has been recognized with prestigious awards from organizations such as MSME & COWE, WEDO, NDTV, and CII Young India. These accolades highlight Ankita Gupta's remarkable efforts in community building, women's empowerment, and creating opportunities for mom entrepreneurs to excel.
One of the standout events in NAM's calendar is the annual exhibition, which has become a highly anticipated occasion for members and visitors alike. The NAM Rakhi Edit 2023 was a resounding success, featuring 80 exhibitors and attracting over 1500 visitors. The event generated collective sales of over 15 lakh rupees and garnered more than 3 million impressions online, thanks in part to the support of 60+ influencers and celebrities.
