Revathi Roy is a rally car driver turned entrepreneur in a simple cotton sari. Have you ever met a woman like that before?
Roy started Forsche (as in Porsche) in 2007, a cab service for women only, which was borne out of financial necessity. With a husband in a coma and a child at MIT, making ends meet was difficult.
Her new company employed and trained women to be strong drivers at a time when, she says, ?No one had ever heard of a commercial driver being a woman.?
Her success in training India?s first female taxi drivers is evident on the streets of Mumbai, the city she calls ?home.?
