ET Startup Awards 2026 | Woman Ahead: Palmonas, Progcap share crown for building across sectors
In one of the most fiercely contested categories of the ET Startup Awards, the jury named two winners this year. Pallavi Mohadikar, cofounder and chief executive of demi-fine jewellery brand Palmonas, and Pallavi Shrivastava, cofounder and CEO of supply-chain lending platform Progcap, both took home the Woman Ahead award.
After extensive deliberations, the jury highlighted how the two entrepreneurs built high-impact companies in very different domains, and split the top honour between them.
