Sumana Iyengar

Hi, I'm Sumana Iyengar – a tech entrepreneur with a passion for innovation and empowering women. As a co-founder of Goavega, I'm proud to be part of a tech venture that's delivering cutting-edge product engineering, data and ai engineering, cloud enablement, and digital solutions. My entrepreneurial drive stems from my family background. Watching my dad overcome financial challenges while running his bakery business inspired me to start my venture. Co-founding Goavega after spending a decade in the tech industry, I have been able to transform it from a two-bedroom apartment startup into a debt-free & profitable organization. Some notable achievements of Goavega: Delivering 15,000+ packages with AI-powered routing. Over USD 100 million of product revenue enabled, 3+ million lines of code written, and 15 products brought to market in the last 12 months. Helping brands achieve a 25% faster go-to-market rate while eliminating up to 50% of defects early in the product development cycle. Our commitment to team excellence has earned us recognition as a 'Great Place to Work', By GOI. Beyond work, I enjoy cycling, trekking, and exploring new places, capturing vibrant moments with my camera. If you're interested in leveraging our expertise in product engineering, cloud enablement, and digital transformation, let's connect and drive your business forward with Goavega.
