China continues to dominate the rankings, home to over half of the list, followed by the United States. A significant driver of this wealth is the AI and semiconductor boom, with leaders like Lisa Su and Mira Murati gaining prominence.
In India, Radha Vembu, Falguni Nayar, and Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw represent the country’s growing entrepreneurial strength. The report also notes a shift toward younger billionaires and the rising influence of digital platforms.
