What world changing problems are you solving?
SDG #5 Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls
As a minority female founder who identifies as LGBTQ Anne Cheng is part of the SheTransacts ecosystem providing a more collaborative way for founders to raise and grow their world changing ideas together by connecting them globally with their most aligned allies and investors. Currently less than 2% of VC dollars get funded . Let’s change this by accelerating Anne’s current fundraise and her June crowdfunding campaign Republic .
In addition to being a female minority founder, she is also solving the problems around client acquisition and marketing strategies which require a steep learning curve and trial and error, before getting optimized. This is largely a human process, and this creates a huge backlog and inefficient work processes within the industry. Marketing strategies and client acquisition requires deep research to understand the target audience, and current marketing and sales software solutions don’t replicate the human strategy that’s required. Supercharge Lab will have a positive impact for many world changing products and services to be seen and sold. Such an important solution for the start up ecosystem and scaling larger businesses.
Startups are important in creating social change — in fact, they have a greater opportunity to lead the charge towards change that we can believe in. From building ethical technologies to ensuring conscious business models, we must realize that startups are in fact, tomorrow’s corporations and enterprises.
I’ve written in a previous article that if we want to create a non-dystopian future, startups must begin with a strong ethical compass, and continually audit its purpose of existence. Starting with a strong sense of why can get you much further than you think. It is equally important to continue asking “why” as you scale, pivot, and succeed.
Why is this important to you as the founder?
“Cognitive computing is in its infancy, and if we start to understand motivations and thoughts better, we can all perform better, and create a better world for future generations.”
