In order to expand the Amazon WoW (Women of the World) initiative driven by Amazon India, the giant has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE).

Amazon WoW has successfully delivered over 40 sessions with 300+ female students securing over 900 internships and full-time opportunities. This platform has accumulated more than 298,000 members since its platform since it's launch. In more than 40 sessions, subjects including coding, problem-solving, tech interviews, and data structures were covered preparing female students for applications and selection processes.
