Parmar's OurStories Media and Entertainment is a Pune based registered media firm which began as a heartbeat, a growing urge, a burning desire of Alpa Parmar to make sure women had a voice that they could call their own.
Her media company acts as a platform to not only showcase women entrepreneurs' success stories, but make these stories happen. Parmar's OurStories Media and Entertainment is an eco-system that brings together women entrepreneurs in a sweeping embrace to help each other, network and grow. The company puts forth ground-breaking ideas of women entrepreneurs and start-ups by conducting innovative events and disruptive media that will offer women entrepreneurs a platform to discuss, network, talk, do and grow their businesses. In a span of 6 months, her company with its brand name 'Women's Connect' has hosted 4 successful mass marketing events and introduced approximately 70+ women entrepreneurs to the world!
It was always Alpa's dream to empower women which in turn motivated her to start her own venture. Alpa also focusses on the need to make women financially independent. She did face failures and disappointments along the way and it was certainly difficult to 'think big'. Her major challenge is with dealing with male vendors who think that women empowerment is not important. She defines success as something as simple as being satisfied with your own work and the feeling of comfort that comes from spreading knowledge to others.
Her media company is in the process of expanding in to new areas of marketing and branding that could provide cost-effective solutions, marketing and PR services to women owned early stage start-ups. Alpa's advice to readers and women entrepreneurs is that challenges and failures are a part of entrepreneurship, so do not be afraid to keep walking and pressing ahead!

We wish Alpa the very best for the future!
