Jayshree Ullal Tops Hurun India Rich List 2025

Jayshree Ullal, who is the President and CEO of Arista Networks, has become the richest Indian-origin professional manager in the world.

This is according to the Hurun India Rich List 2025.

Before this, people often thought of Satya Nadella and Sundar Pichai as the wealthiest Indian-origin leaders in technology.

Jayshree Ullal is not as well-known as these other leaders, but she has now taken the top spot.

This change shows that there are other successful Indian-origin leaders in technology besides the well-known names.

Jayshree was born in London and raised in New Delhi.

She studied Electrical and Electronics Engineering in the United States and later earned a master’s in Engineering Management.

She worked at companies like Cisco Systems, Advanced Micro Devices, and Fairchild Semiconductor before joining Arista Networks in 2008.

Under her leadership, Arista has become a major force in cloud networking, designing high-performance networking solutions for large data centers, cloud providers, and enterprise environments.

In 2024, the company reported around $7 billion in revenue, an almost 20% increase from the previous year.

Jayshree owns about 3% of Arista’s stock, which has contributed to her significant net worth of Rs 50,170 crore.
