All, just by the age of eleven!

👩🏽‍💻 The Tech Whizz-Kid

Shreelakshmi was born on February 5, 1998 in Kozhikode, Kerala, India. She was a bright child with a penchant for computers. She began using computers at the age of three.

The website was inaugurated by Bijoy Vishwam, Forest Minister, Government of Kerala, on 15 January, 2007. Her achievement gained huge media coverage and worldwide acknowledgement in 2006.

👩🏽‍💼The Youngest Woman Entrepreneur

All these achievements propelled her to aim for more. She went on to launch her startup called eDesign in 2009 at the age of eleven, becoming the youngest woman entrepreneur in India. The company offers a comprehensive approach to website design and web development. She also started her second company, TinyLogo around the age of eleven.

ShreeLakshmi is also a philanthropist who manages another company, Online Pixel, which imparts knowledge to the needy. Apart from these ventures, she has also designed a website for the Bar Council of Kerala.
