Maya moved to Tata Digital after the closure of the Tata Opportunities Fund to better understand how the digital world works. Maya witnessed the launch of the Tata Neu App, a platform that provides users with a personalised and immersive shopping experience, while working at Tata Digital.

Maya is currently one of six board members of the Tata Medical Centre Trust, which manages a cancer hospital in Kolkata that Ratan Tata inaugurated in 2011.

Mentored by Ratan Tata himself
