  • Despite having a great idea for a technology startup, people without a technical background often fall prey to the apprehension that they lack the expertise to turn that spark into a wildfire. Letting an inchoate hurdle like that stop you in your tracks is no justice to your own life. You don’t have to look-up to the cliché stories of Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates or Jane Wurwand for inspiration, but deep inside the corporate world in our country, there lie a bunch of home grown entrepreneurs, like Uma Janapareddy (Founder & CEO, SyMetric), who started her journey from the scratch and conquered success owing thanks to a lucid vision, courage and perseverance.

  • 10 Best Women Leaders in Technology - 2018

    What sounds like a complete oxymoron in the current patriarchal society, Women leaders in the field of technology are destined for greatness that transcends time and the companies that they represent. Inspiring generations y and z whilst leaving behind a legacy for the young & driven women to follow, women leaders are a dime a dozen even in 2018. Technology still being a male dominated niche, it is time for the stigma that comes with women being tech novices to disappear,as the legacy left behind by Madame Curie, Mary Anderson, Olga D Gonzalez-Sanabria stands tall as inspirations. Natural multi taskers, and proven to be much efficient than men in getting the work done, it is time for women to be lauded for breaking through societal boundaries with their natural evolutionary attributes of thinking differently, empathetically and for the undeterred determination. While men have the luxury of failing, benefit of doubt and the luxury of having a nine to five job, women are expected never to fail, easily doubted for their abilities and are responsible of ensuring a healthy work-family balance. And as technology still evades the interests of young women across the country, a cry for interest, motivation and support is resounding. Shifting the focus on to women who have turned the tables for men in the technology space, CEO Insights proudly presents the ‘10 Best Women Leaders in Technology - 2018’ who have mastered the art of inspiration, innovation, and leading their peers by example. This roster in fact paints a picture of the ups and downs faced by women leaders, their personal turmoils, professional hurdles and ways to overcome these on their journey towards becoming c-level executives.
