Accordingly CEO and founder of Sheroes, Sairee is not only an inspiration for other women but also has strived hard to make a direct impact by finding jobs for them. She is a finalist for the Cartier women’s Award Initiative for 2012, an Aspen Fellow, nominated for the Editor’s choice for L’oreal Femina women’s Award, featured in india Today and a mother isn’t content to rest on her laurels. She is constantly walking on the roads of a mutual growth of women and towards their complete inclusion in the workplace.
Sairee says in Tech in Asia in a recent interview that, “The idea for Sheroes came from the observation that I was surrounded by so many women who had left their career options behind for social responsibilities [such as raising a family]. I just want to show them that this doesn’t need to be the end of the road.”
Sairee, who is a former journalist is currently holding a “Sheroes summit” in major Indian cities to connect women professionals with businesses. She further adds, “The push toward a Digital india is a watershed moment for all educated women in the country. Digital access is a boon to those who cannot engage in a typical 9-to-5 job yet wish to continue their careers.”
