Founder and CEO, citiesRISE
Moitreyee Sinha

Moitreyee Sinha is Co-Founder and CEO of citiesRISE. As a scientist, social entrepreneur and systems leader, she has always been guided by the core belief that everything is connected, and that large-scale social transformation happens when people, communities, and institutions work together. Originally from India, Moitreyee is a physicist by training and spent her early career in global research at GE. By seeing connections across the healthcare, consumer goods, water, and energy fields, she was able to develop several transformative technologies and innovations. Moitreyee's journey then took her to social impact work, leading the GE Foundation's Global Health portfolio in 22 countries. Her ability to forge connections and have an integrated view of diverse challenges was critical to her success in developing multi-stakeholder initiatives and public-private partnerships for mothers and children, clean water, humanitarian relief, and education. With citiesRISE, Moitreyee is bringing her unique vision for collective, community-based action to mental health. This initiative is the culmination of a lifelong project of breaking down barriers, unifying people, communities, and institutions in service of helping others.
