Saumita Banerjee

Saumita is an entrepreneur, publisher, and author. She started LetsAuthor, a publishing company, in 2019. Her 8-year stint at NineSigma, a leading Open Innovation intermediary, inspired her to adapt the concept of Open Innovation into an unrelated area—writing books. She built a digital platform that enables people to contribute to 'Open Books'—primarily non-fiction books co-created by the intellectual crowd and published by LetsAuthor.

This spirit of Open Authoring is embodied in her book IN THE ARENA, co-created by a cohort of entrepreneurs from around the world. In this book, the co-authors share their experience, knowledge, and perspectives on how to build products that customers love.
