Sneha Choudhry
Empowering Women Entrepreneurs and Redefining Work-Life Balance
Sneha Choudhry, the Co-founder of Zolo, is not your typical entrepreneur. She's a problem solver, a staunch advocate for women's empowerment, and a true believer in creating her own rules to balance the demands of her 24x7 entrepreneurial lifestyle.
A gold medalist from IIM Kozhikode, Sneha's journey has been marked by resilience, determination, and an unwavering commitment to redefining the way entrepreneurs approach work and life.
Sneha's entrepreneurial spirit ignited with the co-founding of Genauth Integrated Solutions, an edtech startup, in January. Genauth represents her second entrepreneurial endeavour, a testament to her unwavering dedication to the entrepreneurial cause.
Her commitment to innovation and entrepreneurship has led her to become one of the leading voices in India's startup ecosystem.
Sneha is not just a businesswoman; she's a champion of work-life balance. She firmly believes that, as an entrepreneur, creating your own work-life equilibrium is key.
To her, the term "24x7 lifestyle" isn't about being perpetually chained to your work; it's about finding the unique harmony that lets you thrive as an entrepreneur and embrace the other aspects of your life that bring you joy.
One of her core beliefs is that entrepreneurs should never be apologetic about managing their time as it suits them. She encourages fellow business owners to set up an activity log, a tool that helps analyse and track their time at work and home.
If a meeting adds little value or a personal commitment beckons, she advocates reshaping your schedule to align with your priorities.
Sneha is a fervent advocate for women entrepreneurs and is always ready to lend her time and expertise to help them ascend to the next level. She believes that women can shatter the glass ceiling by embracing the entrepreneurial spirit and harnessing their unique skills and perspectives.

With a degree from IIM Kozhikode and a wealth of experience at Deloitte and Oracle as a Strategy and Operations Consultant, she is entrusted with overseeing Business Expansion and Customer Experience at Zolo.
