Is TECH for women? Data Privacy, Indian Smartphones & The Future of Digital India | Madhav Sheth

Описание: ALL ABOUT HER with SOHA ALI KHAN ft. Madhav Sheth | Is Tech Built for women? Data Privacy, Indian Smartphones & The Future of Digital India

How dependent are we on technology today?
From the moment we wake up to the moment we sleep, devices shape how we work, communicate, feel safe, and express ourselves. But here’s a question we rarely pause to ask:
Who was all this designed for?

For decades, consumer technology was imagined around a certain “default user.” As more women come online — especially in India’s Tier 3 and Tier 4 towns — smartphones are no longer just communication tools. They are instruments of financial access, safety, education, and independence.

In this episode of All About Her, Soha Ali Khan sits down with technology entrepreneur Madhav Sheth to explore whether tech has historically been designed with women in mind — and how that narrative may finally be shifting.

Madhav reflects on his journey from leading global smartphone brands to building his own India-first vision with Ai+. The conversation moves beyond specs and sales numbers into deeper questions around data privacy, digital consent, transparency, affordability, and what “Made in India” truly means.
