Global Tech Leader Shama Hyder Named To Inc.'S Prestigious 2025 Female Founders 500 List

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) "As a female founder, I've learned that versatility is a superpower. My journey from building Zen Media to becoming a global keynote speaker has taught me that the most impactful entrepreneurs don't just master one lane-they create entirely new intersections. When I speak to audiences worldwide about the future and AI, I'm drawing on my lived experience of navigating business challenges across multiple domains. This multi-hyphenate approach-strategist, speaker, author, CEO-has been my greatest asset in a landscape that constantly demands both innovation and authenticity," said Shama Hyder, CEO of Zen Media.

Shama Hyder is a leading authority on AI integration and future trends. With over 2 million social media followers, she makes technology accessible for diverse audiences. As founder and CEO of Zen Media, Hyder transformed a solo operation into a global B2B marketing and PR agency that delivers remarkable results-clients see an average 96.2% increase in demand generation and 63% lift in sales.

Featured regularly on NPR, Inc, Fox Business, Bloomberg, and CW, Hyder is known for translating complex technological trends into practical business applications.

Named a "Millennial Master of the Universe" by Fast Company and LinkedIn's "Top Voice" in Marketing for four consecutive years, her insights have been recognized by the White House, United Nations, and leading business publications. She serves as a Henry Crown Fellow at the Aspen Institute and authored bestsellers "The Zen of Social Media Marketing" and "Momentum."

"Female founders know what struggle is, but they're also experts of improvisation, adaptability, and creativity. The women featured on this year's list exemplify these qualities," said Inc. executive editor Diana Ransom.

Several honorees will be featured in Inc. magazine's Female Founders issue (March 18, 2025).
