What Young Leaders say on National Technology Day
Shruti Jain, CSO, Arihant Capital
At Arihant Capital, we recognize that the fusion of human insight and cutting-edge technology is the key to empowering investors. We built our flagship product, the ArihantPlus mobile trading application, embodying this philosophy. ArihantPlus has been crafted based on feedback from investors and traders. We realize that technology alone isn’t enough; it must align with users’ needs and how can their investing journey be made simpler and more transparent. The app’s intuitive interface, real-time market data, smart tools, and personalized features cater to beginners and seasoned investors.
On this day, I’d also like to highlight a crucial aspect we must acknowledge: the role of women in technology. As we celebrate the impact of technology, let’s champion the inclusion of more women in the industry. Women bring unique perspectives and exceptional problem-solving abilities. Their holistic thinking, attention to detail, and empathy lead to creative solutions.
Successful tech products aren’t just about lines of code or functionality; they’re about improving lives. Let’s continue to bridge the gap between technology and empathy, ensuring that our innovations resonate with users, simplify their financial journeys, and help them achieve their financial goals. With the ArihantPlus trading app, we have been trying to create a synergy between technology and empathy – so everyone has access to the world of investing!
