“It’s going to be a big, big effort that these three new owners are going to have to put in to change the memory of what Tiber River … used to be,” Ramachandran said, adding the women have a “strong start” by being open about the leadership change.

The entrepreneurs highlighted their experience in an emailed update to Tiber River clients. Customers need proof that “things are better this time around,” Ramachandran said.
