拉什米?辛哈

年齡：42歲

公司：在線PPT分享服務供應商SlideShare

創辦時間：2007年

????印度出生的辛哈1998年從布朗大學（Brown University）獲得心理學博士學位，但實驗室生活已讓她感到厭倦，她最終轉入軟件開發領域。2003年，她創立了用戶體驗咨詢公司Uzanto，基于此后來她又創立了最新的一家公司SlideShare，為用戶提供在線的PPT演示分享服務。

????“當個創業者很難。很多個夜晚都想著一個看起來很棘手的問題入睡。”她說，“但第二天一覺睡醒，你又要精神抖擻解決這個問題。”辛哈的堅持已經獲得了回報。今年5月，商務社交網站LinkedIn以約1.19億美元收購了SlideShare公司。

Rashmi Sinha

Age: 42

Company: SlideShare

Founded: 2007

????The India-born Sinha received her Ph.D in psychology from Brown University in 1998, but the lab bored her; she ended up moving into software development instead. She founded user experience consulting company Uzanto in 2003, which led to Sinha's newest venture, SlideShare, a platform that allows users to share presentations on the web.

????"Being an entrepreneur is hard. So many nights you go to sleep thinking about a problem that seems intractable," she says. "But you get up the next day, refreshed, and attack the problem with renewed vigor." Sinha's persistence has paid off. In May, LinkedIn (LNKD) acquired SlideShare for about $119 million.
