Against the backdrop of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) match between UP Warriorz and Mumbai Indians at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, Capri Sports and She Capital hosted an evening that went beyond just cricket. It was about cheering women on and off the field, whether as athletes or founders who continue to push forward despite challenges.

She Capital And Capri Sports: Driving Impact Together

With International Women’s Day around the corner, the event echoed a simple truth, progress, like cricket, is a team sport. When women champion women, they create opportunities and set new benchmarks, proving there’s room for everyone to succeed. It’s about building a future where talent, not gender, defines the game.

Resilience shapes both great athletes and entrepreneurs—navigating uncertainty, bouncing back from setbacks, and pushing forward under pressure. Success, in sports and business, comes down to strategy, teamwork, and grit. As for the match? It embodied that same spirit. Grace Harris’ fiery 45 off 26, former U19 vice-captain Shweta Sherawat’s confident, well-paced innings, and Dinesh Vrinda’s steady 33 set the stage. Beyond the scoreboard, unwavering determination stood out, and the banter among the attendees? Just as energetic!

The exclusive gathering brought together 20 leading founders, including Ruchi Deepak (Acko), Neha Bagaria (HerKey), Ezhil Subbian (String), and many more from Bangalore, fostering conversations on innovation, leadership, and breaking barriers. And what’s a perfect evening without the perfect takeaway? Guests left with the most adorable gift bags—thoughtfully curated with goodies that added an extra touch of charm to the night.

The significance of the night was amplified by the surging popularity of the WPL. With digital viewership skyrocketing by 70% compared to last year, it’s clear that women’s sports are no longer on the sidelines, they’re centre stage.

“She Capital and Capri Sports taglines read together, saying ‘Together, We Can’ and ‘Change the Game’—and tonight was a reflection of that. Women founders came together to cheer for women athletes, proving that when we show up for each other, we create more opportunities, and more role models, and ensure more women get the recognition they truly deserve. She Capital is committed to building a future where talent, not gender, defines success.” – Anisha Singh, Founder, She Capital

“Sport and business share a common thread—resilience, strategy, and breaking barriers. Partnering with She Capital to bring together women founders and leaders for this match experience is a step towards building stronger networks and celebrating women making an impact,” said Jinisha Sharma, Director, Capri Sports
