Celebrating Mompreneurs - 3.0

There are events that inform. There are events that entertain. And then there are events that move you — that remind you of what is possible when passion, perseverance, and purpose come together in one room. Celebrating Mompreneurs 3.0, hosted by Momsleague Global, was unmistakably the latter.
Held at the vibrant venue Someplace Else in BKC, Mumbai, this third edition of the flagship Celebrating Mompreneurs brought together over 200 aspirants who filled in their entries — each one a story of juggling diapers and deadlines, school runs and sales targets, bedtime stories and business strategies. From those 200+ entries, 24 exceptional Mompreneurs were carefully filtered and chosen for felicitation — women who have not only built remarkable ventures but done so while holding their families close.
The evening was graced by a stellar lineup of women who lead by example.
Priti Rathi Gupta, Founder of Lxme — India's first UPI and financial platform built exclusively for women — served as the Chief Guest. Her presence was not just ceremonial; her words carried weight. Priti spoke with conviction about why women must take full ownership of their financial futures. In a room full of entrepreneurs, her message about financial independence felt especially resonant — a reminder that building a business and building a financial foundation must go hand in hand.
Sonal Kaushal, celebrated voice artist, brought warmth and charisma to the stage as the Celebrity Chief Guest. 
Fatema Agarkar joined as the Guest of Honour, adding depth and perspective to a gathering already rich with inspiration.
If there was one thing that defined Celebrating Mompreneurs 3.0, it was the sheer diversity of journeys represented in that room. The event was lined by inspiring women from every walk of life, each carrying a story that deserved to be heard.
Perhaps the most stirring of all was Chandraprabha Parihar, who reminded everyone that entrepreneurship has no expiry date — her success story, which began in her 70s, drew quiet awe and thunderous applause in equal measure. In a world obsessed with young founders and early exits, she stood as a powerful counterpoint: that it is never too late to begin, to build, or to bloom.
On the other end of the spectrum were young founders and achievers actively scaling their brands, navigating markets, and carving out their own unique space — proof that the entrepreneurial spirit burns bright across every age and stage of life.
Avantika Bahuguna, founder of Momsleague Global had her way of weaving the community into her conversations — making every person in the room feel seen, included, and inspired — was something truly special. She didn't just speak to the audience; she brought them into the room with her, turning her talk into a shared experience rather than a monologue.
The event was empowered by Lxme , India's first UPI and financial platform for women, India’s first UPI & financial platform for women enabling them to invest with confidence. 
The moms were celebrated not just in spirit but in gesture, with thoughtful gifting from two wonderful brands:
Kiro Beauty —  High-performance makeup brand designed for modern women.
Little Fingers — Mom made organic, millet-based treats for happy tummies.
The evening culminated in the felicitation of the 24 chosen Mompreneurs — a moment that was met with well-deserved applause, gleaming eyes, and the unmistakable energy of pride. These 24 women, filtered from over 200 entries, stood as symbols of what it means to be a Mompreneur: relentless, resilient, and radiant.
The felicitation was followed by a delightful high tea, where the room buzzed with laughter, conversations, new connections, and of course — happy faces all around.
Celebrating Mompreneurs 3.0 was more than an event — it was a movement in motion. Momsleague Global has built something rare: a platform where achievement is applauded, community is cultivated, and every woman feels that her journey — however unconventional, however late-started, however uniquely hers — is worth celebrating.
Here's to every Mompreneur in that room — and to the many more who are just getting started.
