01:58- Being a Singer-Songwriter
- It was not an ambition at all.
- I’d always been a musician, and I lived in the South of France.
- I’d been working with Sony Digital and quite a few other clients at the time.
- I had an opportunity to go record some songs, and so I had a backlog of a lot of songs at a recording studio.
- It wasn’t planned. I wrote about mindset more than anything and how we see life, a lot of that was just observations about the world.
05:09- What drives you to found a company?
- It’s more based on being able to help people, and usually the knock-on effect of how and what a product or service can do to help more people.
07:23- Creating a solution
- There’s a conviction. When you see a problem that hasn’t been solved, I feel like there’s a personal obligation to create a company or a solution to that problem through either technology or a product or service that doesn’t exist in the market.
- I think that’s probably a big motivator for me is to solve a problem in the market that helps people get the job done and sometimes that comes through personal frustrations.
10:40- About Wedo
- We offer to give you back your, time your money and your heartache more than anything really to be able to remove a barrier for people.
- We allow video and audio spaces that you can broadcast to up to a million people per channel, we call them alleys.
- You can do one-to-ones and take an instant payment you can sell tickets you can send invoices, and we issue you a debit card, so you can also do your banking processing with us.
- We automate the contracting procedure and the invoicing, so you can basically do just about everything you can do on a social media site and take instant payments through it on demand in real time.
18:39- Breaking the glass ceiling
- It is persistence more than anything, and you’re going to get a lot of nos in life in general and here are some bits in parts of life where it’s easier for women for sure and there are some areas of life which are more difficult.
- Women in technology happens to be one of the more difficult ones, but it’s really difficult for everyone who goes out to raise capital and especially during a recession or a period like COVID-19.
- I see a lot more women in technology. I see the next generation a lot more women involved in product and development a lot more women who are involved in innovation and technology and the businesses that scale.
