WiRE are delighted to announce that Kavita Oberoi has agreed to speak at the 2009 conference.
Kavita Oberoi is one of the UK's most successful female entrepreneurs. At the age of 39, Kavita runs her own successful IT business, healthcare consultancy which she started from scratch in 2001.
Already well known in Derbyshire, where her business is based, Kavita came to receive wider public attention in August 2008 when she appeared on Channel 4's hit show 'The Secret Millionaire'. Since her appearance on the show Kavita has become a director of one of the charities she supported on the show; Marthas Oasis.
Raised in a traditional Indian family, Kavita credits her mother with giving her the determination to seek out an education for herself and her father for giving her the entrepreneurial spirit which made her such a success. Kavita was the first woman in her family to get a university degree and be allowed to work. However her personal fortune of over £10 million does not stop her from having to juggle being a working wife, mother of two daughters doing all the normal things we all do like cooking the family meal!
The Secret Millionaaire experience has inspired Kavita to become more involved in charity work, she says 'I want to be able to share my success and inspire and help other people.
