Anjula Acharia, Priyanka Chopra’s manager and the CEO of A-series Management and Investments, will feature as a keynote speaker at the ITP Live 2021 Conference – ‘The Power of Female Influence’ – on March 30, 2021.
Acharia has successfully dominated both Hollywood and the Silicon Valley: at present, Acharia is the CEO of her own management and investments company – which targets largely female-founded and early-stage startups. Notably, Acharia was the first investor and incubator for unicorn startup ClassPass – which was founded by Payal Kadakia Pujji.
Acharia is also an investor and strategic advisor for Bumble: in February 2021, the company raised a $2.15 billion initial public offering [IPO] – making founder Whitney Wolfe Herd one of the world’s youngest female self-made billionaires.
Acharia also has a strong background in entertainment: in 2006, Acharia co-founded a content creation and entertainment company called Desi Hits and gained recognition from the Billboard ‘Top 40 Women In Music’ for her work – which included introducing international singers such as Britney Spears and Lady Gaga to the Indian music market. Her entertainment success eventually led her to Priyanka Chopra – who she currently manages.

Moreover, Acharia – who is an immigrant – shows that you don’t need connections or an inheritance to become a successful female entrepreneur:
