The AI boom has benefited not just new players but some long-standing businesses—like Arista Networks. Jayshree Ullal has been at Arista since 2008, when it was a scrappy networking startup, guiding it to an expected $11.5 billion in revenue this year, with customers for its networking gear including Meta and Microsoft. Ullal, as founding CEO, led Arista through its IPO in 2014. Her stake in Arista makes her one of the world’s wealthiest self-made women.
