Forbes earlier this month released its list of the most powerful and influential businesswomen from Asia. This list showcases 25 Asian women, who have made a very lasting impression with their actions and accomplishment, even during this global pandemic. These women are paving the way for the coming generation and inspiring upcoming entrepreneurs in following their passion.

One thing that makes us all proud, is the Indian businesswomen who have made it to the list. This year out of the 25 businesswomen featured, four of them are Indians. Another thing worth mentioning is that this year there have been businesswomen from both traditional industries as well as somewhat unconventional business fields that have left their mark in the business world.
