#takeaction podcast interview with start-up entrepreneur Bambi Dang
Bambi Dang has an inspiring and empowering story to be shared. Her real name, Ba, meaning number three in Vietnamese, tells it all about the sad reality of gender inequality. Hundreds of millions of girls have similar stories to be told. However, Bambi was able to find her inner strength and she is now empowering others with her story. She uses her voice to encourage others to speak up and share their stories as well.
Finding your inner strenght can create a whole new world around you
Finding the courage was not easy for Bambi. It took her many years to get to the point where she is now. But, finding your inner strength and getting out of the state of being a victim of circumstances, can lead to magical things.
Today Bambi is a start-up entrepreneur, and her co-founder is Peter Vesterbacka, a high profile serial entrepreneur, formerly known as the Mighty Eagle of Angry Birds. The story behind the founding of their start-up is interesting. One day Bambi was in a Starbucks and saw Peter there sitting alone. She went to ask for five minutes of his time, to pitch her then-startup idea, and they ended up talking for half an hour discussing different ideas. They started collaborating on different projects since then. In January 2020 they co-founded FinestNinja.
FinestNinja enables people to outgrow their potential
FinestNinja started in 2020 with the mission of bridging the talent gap in the FinestBay Area (Nordic and Baltic). They want to support the entrepreneurial communities and believe that the best way to improve entrepreneurship and the economy is to work from the ground up and change the way young people perceive entrepreneurship. FinestNinja also encourages diversity in local startups and companies by having internationals working for them.

Bambi is on a mission to empower women and girls
There are millions of women and girls who are every day suffering from gender inequality in their life. In many cases, they don’t even know that it’s possible to have things differently. Bambi shared some worthwhile tips for starting your own personal transformation towards finding your own power, and making a change:
- Forgive
Living with the hate inside you won’t help you move forwards. Forgiving is important, not just for people who hurt you, but also for yourself. Achieving inner peace is the foundation to grow.
2. Start questioning
Don’t take things for granted just because that’s how it has always been. Keep questioning, why is it so, could things be better? Could we do it differently?
3. Change is the only constant in the world
Embrace the change, in the world, and in yourself. Change is always present, things evolve, and it is your job to create a better world with what you have. Become the change you wish to see in the world.
4. Speak up! Share your story!
No one else can fight your battle, so take the first step by speaking up. There are people wanting to hear your story. There are people who might change their life because of your story.
