Inside the June Edition of Women Listed’s Elevator Pitch Meet: Connections, Pitches & Learning

June 26, 2025

On June 25, Women Listed hosted yet another power-packed edition of our 60-Second Elevator Pitch Networking Meet in Delhi — and this one had just the right mix of business, creativity, collaboration, and a whole lot of you-had-to-be-there energy.

Set in an intimate, welcoming space, the event brought together a diverse circle of women entrepreneurs, wellness practitioners, and brand builders who came ready to pitch, connect, share stories — and most importantly, cheer each other on. From bold ideas to quiet breakthroughs, it was a morning filled with meaningful conversations, sample showcases, business card swaps, and moments of genuine encouragement.

Mini Workshop Session That Stole the Spotlight

The mini workshop of the day was an amazing highlight of Meet: the DIY Photography Workshop: How to Shoot & Style to Sell, led by Monica Bharti, Photographer & Founder of Studio Monart.

Monica didn’t just talk about content — she offered real, ready-to-use tips tailored for small business owners who create their own brand visuals. From mastering both natural and artificial light to smartphone camera settings, she unpacked exactly how to make your products look their best with what you already have.

She walked attendees through styling principles for different product categories — fashion pieces, food items, gift hampers — and shared clever angle and prop ideas that elevate even the simplest setup. What made it extra special? She brought along samples of affordable artificial backdrops, shared how to manage lighting, and explained how to create scroll-stopping shots without spending a fortune.

It wasn’t just theory — it was a hands-on, eye-opening experience that had attendees taking notes, and seeing their own products in a whole new light.

A Circle of Women Who Showed Up and Spoke Up

This wasn’t just about pitching a brand. It was about sharing what’s working, what’s hard, and what’s next. Each participant brought not only their elevator pitch but also their real business stories — from early milestones to current struggles — creating a safe, collaborative space that felt more like a circle than a stage.
