Following the historic performance of the Indian Women's Hockey Team at the Tokyo Olympics, Edtech Startup DataTrained has announced a 6-lakh-rupee grant and free life-long upskilling.

These girls aren't household names, despite being a driver's daughter and coming from a farming family. But what sets them apart is their determination to succeed, their desire to make history, and their unwavering spirit! They dreamed of victory when the rest of the world thought they had no chance.

The Indian women's hockey team for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics has already made history, from blood, sweat, and tears to becoming a global star! They didn't win a medal, but they did win the hearts of millions of people around the world.

Datatrained announces a 6 lakh reward for the Indian women's hockey squad for the Tokyo Olympics, as well as lifetime free course enrollments, with great pride in our hearts.

Datatrained, with more than half of its employees being female, is an organisation that believes in the true, untapped potential of women all over the world. DataTrained's mission is to spread education and upskilling to all sectors of society, including women, because education is one of the most powerful pillars of support for any nation's growth.

Commenting on the announcement, Janardan Tiwari, Founder and CEO said, “We know their journey was never an easy one, but this small gesture by Datatrained is to salute the great job done by all these ordinary women with extraordinary dreams. These players deserve a lot for their grit, confidence, and sacrifices.” The company aims to bring a positive and immediate change in the lives of the sportspersons and this act is just a testimony to that.
