Women’s empowerment and gender equality have long been areas of concern globally. The world is gradually realizing that women’s inclusion in the workforce is not only the ethically right thing to aspire for, but it also makes business sense. Various reports and studies have highlighted the business advantages that women’s inclusion in the workforce and leadership teams can bring about.

Countries and organizations globally now give ample emphasis to promote women’s empowerment. Take for instance the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Community Vision 2025 of the Association for Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), which counts Gender equality and women’s empowerment as its top priority. Their vision is to build a region that is inclusive and sustainable.

Doing our bit to create a more inclusive world, Global Woman Leader magazine highlights the commendable work done by women leaders across the world. In the current edition of the magazine, we focus the spotlight on women leaders from Asia who have conquered varied industries.

In this magazine edition, read an in-depth interview featuring Sneha Motarwar, Co-Founder & CEO of Lazulite. She epitomizes the transformative power of female leadership. Sneha holds a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science Engineering, with a specialization in Software development. Her journey into the business world began with active participation in extracurricular activities during her academic years, including case competitions and internships.
