Shahid Soorty (M)
Managing Director
"Industrial manufacturing has seen a steady decrease in female-worker participation for decades, now. This situation is not just creating problems for women and families throughout the country but also depriving us - as industries - from the participation and access to 51 percent of human resource. Through our Soorty Enhancing Women's Service (SEWS) Project we are working to shift this tide but much more is needed - from all sectors of society - so this situation can be solved for community growth and happiness". - Mr. Shahid Soorty
