Harshitha Balini, a Cambridge MBA graduate (MBA 2016), has been shortlisted in the Women of the Future Awards that recognise female talent in the UK. Harshitha is one of five women finalists in the “MBA Star” category of the awards.

The awards, in association with insurer Aviva, were founded in 2006 to “recognise the inspirational stars of tomorrow across diverse sectors”. The award winners will be announced on 15 November at a ceremony at the London Hilton hotel.

Harshitha, who recently began as Product Strategy Manager at travel company Expedia in London, was co-chair of the Student SIG (student interest group) part of Cambridge Judge Business School’s Wo+Men’s Leadership Centre, which addresses gender diversity in senior business leadership positions. The Centre held its third annual conference in June 2017 with the theme “Finding Balance”.
