Powerhouse 40 - The Women In India's Tech Revolution

In today's fast-evolving digital landscape, the technology industry is witnessing an unprecedented pace of innovation and disruption. Despite the industry's immense growth potential, women are still underrepresented in leadership roles within the tech sector. However, there are many women leaders who have demonstrated excellence in the tech industry and made a significant impact. In this article, we celebrate the contributions of 40 women who have excelled in tech leadership roles in India.

The women on this list come from diverse backgrounds and industries, but they share a common thread of being frontrunners in the field of tech. They have demonstrated an unwavering dedication to driving innovation, creating opportunities for women in tech, and pushing boundaries in the industry. From driving major transformations in tech companies to leading cutting-edge research and development, these women have excelled and proved that gender is no barrier to success in tech.

By highlighting their achievements and showcasing their inspiring stories, we hope to inspire the next generation of women leaders to pursue tech careers and create a more diverse and inclusive tech industry. Our selection criteria for these women were based on their demonstrated excellence in leadership, impact, and dedication to the tech industry, including those leading some of the country's most successful unicorns.

Our list of 40 women is not exhaustive but is eclectic and serves as a representation of the remarkable contributions women are making to the tech industry. We encourage our readers to explore and recognize the accomplishments of all women who have broken barriers and are driving innovation in tech.

We believe that it is crucial to celebrate the achievements of women in tech and to continue to advocate for greater representation and inclusivity in leadership roles in the industry.

Bright frogs, Monarch butterflies, Black-yellow bees and industrial automation- same thing?

As counter-intuitive as it may sound- Is automation a stupid loud colour to wear that attracts predators because of bigger attack surfaces or is it strangely-aposematic enough to tell the bad actors - stay away? Specially when security is baked in and bold- and ready for any camouflage? And what happens when Quantum and third-party supply chains make their way into industrial forests? We may not have all the answers but how about a purple-team approach to begin with.
