Intuit India has recently sponsored the second edition of the Women Entrepreneurship Quest (WEQ) 2012 at the Grace Hopper Celebration (GHC) of Women in Computing. WEQ is a platform designed to promote and showcase early-stage ventures with a technology component founded or led by women entrepreneurs. Intuit has always been on the forefront of supporting small businesses by understanding the pain points of small business owners and introducing products that make their life easier.
Co-founded by Dr. Anita Borg and Dr. Telle Whitney in 1994 and inspired by the legacy of Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper, the Grace Hopper Celebration (GHC) of Women in Computing is a conference designed to bring the research and career interests of women in computing to the forefront. Intuit India was also a bronze sponsor of the event overall.
Vijay Anand, Vice President, India Development Centre, Intuit India, said, “At Intuit, diversity and inclusion are core values we live by.  A diverse workforce that mirrors our customer base helps us build deeper empathy and delightful solutions for our customers.  An inclusive work environment that values diversity of thought fosters entrepreneurial thinking and leads to amazing innovations and strong business performance.  These values come to life in the numerous employee networks and communities that we have within Intuit including the Intuit Women’s Network (IWN).”
