Priya Krishnan has a storied background as an entrepreneur who founded India’s leading child care and schooling service provider with more than 150 company-owned, company-operated centers across the country.
Priya joined the Bright Horizons family after founding and running KLAY, a school for children from marginalized backgrounds, which has grown to become India’s largest child care and schooling service provider. She initially started the business with the intent of enabling women to return to work after childbirth. She won numerous entrepreneurship recognition awards, as her startup school expanded to 150 company-owned, company-operated centers across the country, staffed with empowered employees taking care of more than 11,000 children. Priya’s company went on to provide high-quality child care services onsite, and worked with varying workplace models to help companies create solutions for their employees.
Prior to her entrepreneurial stint, Priya had a global career in IT consulting across Singapore, New York, and London, working with companies including Accenture, PwC, Mphasis, EDS, and HP.
Priya holds a bachelor’s degree in engineering and has an MBA from London Business School.

Priya is driven to helping other families discover work-life solutions, but in her off-time, she loves cooking, reading, traveling, and especially enjoys spending time with her own family.
