Mumbai, July 22, 2024: As many as 52 women from rural Maharashtra were trained in business, communication and leadership skills under a project jointly run by IndoSpace, developer and manager of Grade A industrial real estate, and Magic Bus India Foundation.
     
The first cohort of 52 women, selected from areas around Chakan and Khopoli where Indospace operates two large logistic parks, graduated from the Young Women Fellowship Programme (YWFP).
