The '''Confederation of Women Entrepreneurs''' (COWE) is a [[NGO]]/[[social organization]] engaged in the social and economic "upliftment of women through entrepreneurship". The slogan "Gearing women power" stands for the democratic structure of COWE and stands for "Of the women, for the women and by the women".

It was inaugurated on 22 December 2004 by Honourable [[Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh]], [[Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy|Shri Y.S.Rajasekhara Reddy]] at Jubilee Hall, [[Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh|Hyderabad]], [[India]].

COWE's vision is to build a group of women who are economically empowered, valued citizens of the nation by combining the dormant talent, skills, practical knowledge and resources of women with dedication and commitment.
