Description: Join us for an inspiring evening as part of the IGNITING Women in Business Speaker Series, featuring Rashmi Prakash, CEO and Co-Founder of Aruna Revolution.

Rashmi is a visionary entrepreneur who is transforming menstrual health through sustainability and innovation. With a background in electrical and biomedical engineering, she co-founded Aruna Revolution to tackle the environmental impact of traditional menstrual products by creating compostable pads made from natural plant fibers and agricultural by-products.

In just three years, Rashmi has guided Aruna from concept to award-winning success—securing investment on Dragons’ Den and winning the $100,000 Impact Investment Prize at Startupfest 2025. Her mission is clear: to build a future where healthcare solutions not only reduce environmental harm but also promote equity and accessibility for all.

Why Attend:
  • Gain insights from Rashmi’s entrepreneurial journey in launching a purpose-driven startup.
  • Learn how intellectual property protection can fuel innovation and growth.
  • Connect with a community of women in business and aspiring entrepreneurs.

Whether you’re a founder, a professional, or simply curious about sustainable innovation, this event is a chance to learn, network, and feel inspired.
