Nilofer Merchant Selected as Worldwide Innovation Role Model
September 17, 2008

On August 11, 2008, Rubicon CEO Nilofer Merchant became one of a select group of 36 women in technology to be profiled as global role models.

Enabled by the growth of social media, the “IT Around the World” project increases international understanding and demonstrates how important the contribution of women in technology is on every continent.

August 11 was selected because it was on this date in 1942 that Hedy Lamarr’s Spread Spectrum patent was approved. It continues to be the basis of frequency hopping, wireless and mobile communications today.
