Her Story
“The journey has not been easy. Building a start-up is difficult. It requires constant push, rigorous fire and never-ending motivation and that cannot be external, it has to be internal. Something from within, a fire, that keeps you going and, in that journey, the team you have plays a massive role. A blend of right team having dedication, passion, humour, focus and most importantly hunger is very important and I am blessed to have that." says Megha Gambhir.
During her past years of corporate experience before Stupa, she had the privilege of working with several renowned clients including World Bank, United Nations as an advisory consultant and PepsiCo India, American Express as Project manager through Service Organizations like Ernst & Young, Cognizant technologies and HCL technologies.
