In this week\u2019s episode of The Start-Up Diaries, we\u2019re joined by Chi-Chi Ekweozor, Founder of Assenty. After spotting an opportunity to provide a solution for a gap in the events market, Chi-Chi has developed a simple Q&A function device into an audience interaction and live virtual polling tool, proving that often the most straightforward ideas are the most effective.\xa0
Chi-Chi talked us through how she has been able to make the most of the opportunities lockdown has thrown her way, and how Assenty has thrived during the Pandemic by keeping people connected. Chi-Chi is also the founder of #FemaleTechFounder, a series of events hosted in Manchester \u2013 and now virtually \u2013 that brings aspiring female founders and women in tech together to hear from successful founders within the tech space, passing on their challenges, highlights and biggest lessons.\xa0
Chi-Chi is a strong advocate for encouraging more girls into Tech and discussed with us why she feels the investment sector can be seen as intimidating to many women, as well as why and how the lack of female representation in the tech community needs to be addressed at a grassroots level.\xa0
