Business Leader & Women’s Economic Empowerment Champion
My name is Shuba. Inspired by environmental causes and philanthropic entrepreneurs, I’ve been a tireless catalyst for sustainable development, D&I and the economic empowerment of women in my native India (and beyond). An influencer with global contacts, I’ve a record of rallying governments and mobilising corporate leaders to invest time, energy and finances to transform the lives of thousands of families, workers & communities.
