About

Entrepreneur | Feminist | Changemaker I’m Janvi Tiwari — Founder & CEO of SOQO, a women-led femtech brand building India’s everyday leakproof intimatewear essential for all life stages, from menarche to menopause. My work blends body literacy, cultural insight, and functional design to create products that women can trust every single day. Before SOQO, I founded MANASĀ, a menstrual health initiative that educated 2 lakh+ women across rural and urban communities and distributed thousands of reusable pads through crisis relief and grassroots programs. This lived experience shaped my mission: to give women comfort, dignity, and agency in their most intimate spaces. SOQO is incubated at IIM Ahmedabad, supported by Startup India, and recognised for its innovation in functional apparel. I’ve represented India at Dubai Expo 2020 and was selected for the U.S. Department of State’s Professional Fellows Program, working alongside global leaders advancing women’s economic empowerment. As a founder, strategist, and storyteller, I’m building the next wave of femtech in India — stigma-free, design-led, rooted in science, and emotionally intelligent. I’m passionate about shaping conversations around intimate wellness, feminine power, and preventive health, and about creating products and communities that help women feel seen, supported, and unstoppable.
