Fortune's 40 Under 40 List: Akash Ambani, Isha Ambani, Among The Most Influential Young Leaders
Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani's twin kids, Akash Ambani and Isha Ambani, have found a place in the Fortune's 40 Under 40 List this year. They are among the top 40 young leaders who have managed to find a place under the technology section. Along with them are Serum Institute of India CEO Adar Poonawalla and Byju Raveendran, co-founder of India's leading education technology company named Byju's.

As reported by ANI, an excerpt from the Fortune Magazine article read, "Reliance is a family business. Akash joined the company in 2014 after receiving an economics degree from Brown University. Isha joined a year later, following stints at Yale, Stanford, and McKinsey. As Jio board members, they helped seal the company's recent megadeal with Facebook--USD 5.7 billion for a 9.99 per cent stake--plus major follow-on investments from marquee tech titans like Google, Qualcomm, and Intel. The flurry of investments lent the business an eye-popping USD 65 billion private valuation."

The magazine even mentioned their younger brother Anant, as an excerpt read, "When the glam siblings are not basking in unfathomable luxury, they’re training—along with their younger brother, Anant, 25, a more recent addition to Jio’s board—to take on their father’s empire," as reported by The Economic Times. It also mentions Akash and Isha living a luxurious life in a 'sky caper palace' and partying with Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas whilst keeping their private lives private. Exception to this is their extravagant weddings to Shoka Mehta and Anand Piramal respectively.
