Uncommon Thinkers Welcome
By Rob Smith September 10, 2024
This article originally appeared in the September/October 2024 issue of Seattle magazine.
Editor’s Note: This series is a partnership between Seattle magazine and Greater Seattle Partners, designed to recognize some of the region’s boldest Uncommon Thinkers — the inventors, artists, leaders, and entrepreneurs who are transforming communities and driving positive change throughout the world. Greater Seattle has deep cultural and economic ties with the Indian diaspora, with more than 80,000 Indian Americans calling this region home, and we will continue to nurture this relationship with an Indian consulate recently established in Seattle and the launch of the Roundglass India Center at Seattle University.
In this feature, we are delighted to highlight three incredible Indian American leaders: remarkable individuals who are at the forefront of making a difference, in business and in community.
- Sunny Singh, Founder, Roundglass and Edifecs.
- Ambika Singh, CEO, Armoire.
- Pallavi Mehta Wahi, Co-Managing Partner, U.S., at K&L Gates; Managing Partner, Seattle office, K&L Gates.
