Sheroes Summit 2016
27th August 2016, the day when I got an opportunity to meet the beautiful talented women across India through an event ,the 4th Edition of the Sheroes Summit held at Hotel Novotel , Juhu Mumbai. It was a well organized event, with the purpose of bringing ‘Sheroes’ together and discussing important issues like work-life balance and future of work.
The event started with an introductory speech by none other than Sairee Chahal, Founder of Sheroes.
Sonam Kalra(founder Sufi Gospel projects) shared her experience and journey of her career till now and she introduced her new song ‘Bol’
Got to hear the wonderful ,talented , successful female CEO like Reena Chhabra (CEO,FSN Brand, Nykaa).
She spoke about the challenges and struggle she faced during her career growth. Inspiring words like work for
what you are passionate about , follow your passion and success will follow you.
Later Nipun Singhal(Director LLYOD Electic & Engineering Limited) very well passed on the message that the
“Most powerful thing is a simplest thing ” and we need to find the simple thing to become powerful in our life.
Shinjini Kumar (CEO,Paytm Bank) what an outstanding brilliant speaker she is !! I was very much impressed by her journey from a small town girl to CEO of Paytm leading the payments bank initiatives.
During the tea break , I got to meet her personally and thanked her for her aspiring speech and yes of course a selfie 🙂
After a tea break , the entire auditorium was lightened up by the humorous speech by Neeti Paul (Stand up Comedienne)
The event continued with many speakers like Venky Mysore (CEO & MD , Kolkatta Knight Riders), who shared his long and successful career in insurance and finance.And yes the day went on and on with many such inspiring talks and speeches.
The day ended on another laughter note, when Varun Grover, stand-up comedian, who shared his funny experiences
about feminism.
For me the takeaways were great , the cute little monster soft toy which my girls would definitely love and yes the sheroes mug which will always reminds me to”I Take Charge”
Apart from the enlightening leanings, knowledge gains, and inspiring stories of fearless women to the wonderful people I got an opportunity to meet new friends and the relationships I built with the sheroes family is my biggest gain.
I certainly feel attending this Summit was beneficial for me, and would continue to contribute by posting blogs and making me realize that whatever you do in life
be fearless and just keep going like a SHERO.
