Kirusa CFO Recipient of Union County’s "Women of Excellence" Award

New Providence, New Jersey, March 27, 2009: Kirusa, the world's leading vendor of Voice SMS and a leading developer of mobile value added services, today announced that its Chief Financial Officer, Baldeep Dua, has been recognized by Union County with the “Women of Excellence Award”.

Commenting on the release, Inderpal Singh Mumick, Founder and CEO of Kirusa says, “Baldeep has quickly established herself as one of the key team members at Kirusa, who have been instrumental behind the recent growth of Kirusa. We value her talents and are confident that she will continue creating benchmarks of excellence in her work.”

Baldeep is a natural leader, and while she can be very persuasive and assertive, she gets high marks from her colleagues for being collaborative, inclusive, and open to new ideas. She believes that she strengthens herself by strengthening others. As a result, she has built a very strong and loyal team; and she is often a ‘sounding board’ for many of her peers, both inside and outside of the company. Baldeep was honored by EWNJ (Executive Women of New Jersey) with the ‘Salute to Policy Makers Award’ in 2008. In 2005 she was conferred with the ‘CFO of the Year Award’ by NJTC (New Jersey Technology Council).

“The Union County Commission on the Status of Women is pleased to recognize Baldeep Dua as one of nine Women of Excellence to be honored at their annual dinner at 6:30 PM on Friday, March 27th, at the Westwood, in Garwood, NJ. This award is given annually to outstanding women who live or work in Union County, who demonstrate their leadership abilities and contribute to their communities, truly making a difference in their lives and the lives of others.
