SUKANYA UPADHYAYA
Innovation, smiles and development
ABOUT
Sukanya is an artist and entrepreneur from Mumbai, India. She holds an M.S. Economics degree from Tufts University and B.A. double degrees in Economics and Studio Art with a minor in Mathematics from Beloit College.
Sukanya grew up in 5 countries enjoying both creative and quantitative disciplines with her (supremely inspiring!) twin sister Shambhavi. In her free time, Sukanya likes to build app ideas, write a crime-drama graphic novel, ideate banal inventions, paint in charcoal, and make music cover videos. Her love for innovation is inspired by a childhood of travel, excessive fiction reading, and dabbling with different hobbies.
​
Sukanya's umbrella project, The Gloo, is a collection of products seeking to break the barriers of innovation for a heartier, more equitable society. The Gloo is currently building OwlChest, a messaging app that fosters meaningful communication through users' touch of hand, and BanaGloo, a startup that aims to help low-income individuals in India earn passive income through art.​
