Asked about his industry-beating endeavor that landed him the award, Srihari Karanth said, "Customer feedback is very important for us as a motivation to develop useful apps that enable safety without adding any last mile costs. Technology can be leveraged to act as a bridge between what digital innovation can offer and what vulnerabilities end users face. This motivates the entire team at TrackMyPhones to develop unique safety apps for users."
