I. Background
Last year, the BRICS Women Innovation Contest initiated by the Chinese Chapter and jointly organized by the other four Chapters was a great success. More than 200 candidates from different industries participated in the Contest. Winners of the Innovation Contest have set inspiring examples for us.
This year, the Innovation Contest has been put into BRICS WBA 2022 Action Plan and will be held from March to May, and conclude with an Award Ceremony. The BRICS WBA chapters are all hoped and encouraged to take part in the Contest and also recommend qualified candidates from each country.
In 2021, with the strong support and efforts of FICCI，nearly 20 candidates from India will participate, and 3 of them have won awards. All of them have made positive contributions to the successful holding of this event.
This year, we hope that FICCI will continue to support and select Indian women who meet the assault to participate in this event,
At the BRICS Summit on November 17, 2020, the Chinese State Leader proposed the initiative of BRICS Women Innovation Contest (hereinafter referred to as the Contest) under the BRICS cooperation framework, which received wide support from all BRICS Leaders.
Upholding the people-oriented concept, the Contest is open to all business women in BRICS countries, and will recognize outstanding business women devoted to promoting social welfare and economic development in different fields across BRICS nations, and promote the exchange of best practices and innovative initiatives led by women, and thus to advance to the cooperation among business women across BRICS nations.
