About me
Ariana Agarwal is the Head Girl of Jayshree Periwal International School and a student entrepreneur passionate about leveraging technology for social and environmental justice. She is the Founder of the Informal Economy Index, a data-driven initiative that helps improve access to government welfare and financial inclusion for informal workers, and the Co-Founder of GrainOS, an AI-powered platform designed to reduce post-harvest grain losses and strengthen agricultural resilience.
Believing that the most pressing problems are often the least visible, Ariana focuses on building practical, scalable solutions that create measurable impact. Her work spans environmental sustainability, economic inclusion, and responsible innovation, driven by the conviction that technology should empower underserved communities rather than exclude them. She is particularly committed to advancing environmental justice by developing solutions that make sustainability more accessible and equitable.
As a student leader, researcher, and entrepreneur, Ariana strives to bridge the gap between innovation and impact, combining data, technology, and grassroots engagement to build systems that improve lives while creating a more sustainable and inclusive future.
