Vidya Ravichandran is the Founder and President of GlowTouch, a global customer care and business process outsourcing (BPO) enterprise that offers contact center, back office, and technology outsourcing solutions. GlowTouch was founded around 2 decades ago with 3 employees and has grown to about 2300 employees in 5 locations across India, the Dominican Republic, and the United States. In her leadership role, Vidya is devoted to four complimentary vocations: adding value to her clients’ bottom line; enhancing their customers’ experiences; providing her employees with a workplace where they will thrive; and supporting her local and international communities. She manages all four endeavors with a “People First” mindset.
In addition to steering GlowTouch, Vidya is deeply committed to several ethical, enduring philanthropic causes and non-profit boards in education and the arts. She is a fierce advocate for STEM education, especially for women, and cares deeply about inequity in access to opportunities for women and minorities. The Governor of Kentucky appointed Vidya to serve on the Council for Post-Secondary Education, where she strives to improve the pipeline of educational and career opportunities for all Kentuckians, irrespective of their backgrounds.
Vidya and her family are involved in supporting various charities around the world through the GT Foundation. Its mission is to provide economically challenged families access to quality health services, educational assistance, and employment opportunities; and promote arts and culture to improve the social, cultural, and economic foundations of society. The Foundation supports and expands various impactful community programs in India and the U.S.
