The only woman on Capgemini's global leadership board, Jayanthi was part of the team that oversaw iGate's integration with Capgemini. The exercise took Capgemini's headcount to 83,000, and elevated Jayanthi to a global position as the head of the French company’s BPO division. Capgemini acquired iGate in a $4 billion deal in 2015. Besides chairing the board of Capgemini Sweden, Jayanthi serves on the boards of the Michelin Group and SBI Capital Markets, and is an executive council member of the IT industry body Nasscom. In her free time, she brushes up on her singing and loves being driven around the racing track at 280 km/h in a Porsche.
