TECH ALPHARETTA EXECUTIVE SPOTLIGHT | SUNITA ARORA, CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER OF MEDICUS IT

by | Blogs

Sunita Arora is the Chief Operating Officer at Medicus IT, one of the nation’s top healthcare IT managed services providers. Medicus IT serves 50,000 users across more than 2,000+ locations and provides the healthcare industry with the tools to build and maintain its IT infrastructure. Headquartered in Alpharetta, Medicus IT is located in the heart of the local tech startup community.

Arora was introduced to Tech Alpharetta nearly five years ago after meeting Karen Cashion, the organization’s President and CEO. She expressed interest in providing resources for young women in STEAM to give them equal opportunities in the tech community. Those conversations led to the creation of the Tech Alpharetta Women’s Forum’s STEAM Mentoring Program. Arora helped to launch the STEAM  Mentoring Program at Fulton County Schools’ Innovation Academy High School, a public magnet school. Now a popular club offering at the high school, the program pairs female tech executive mentors with female students to encourage and help inspire the girls to pursue STEAM careers.

As a Tech Alpharetta’s Board member, Arora has also emphasized the importance of bringing women in technology together through networking, funding, and specialized programs.  Arora believes that the Alpharetta tech community will evolve significantly over the next few years as it continues to create spaces for women in tech.

“I do think the technology investments made in Alpharetta and surrounding areas will continue to grow,” said Arora. “We are going to see larger companies plant their seeds in the Atlanta and Alpharetta areas. With great schools here, I think there is no lack of talent that these companies can tap into. I see these tech companies growing and the tech community growing with them.”
