So, without much ado, let us soak into the success stories of the entrepreneurs of TODAY and tycoons of TOMORROW!
1. Angelica Nwandu: Gone are the days when newspapers and televisions were the only sources of trending information. The advancement in the field of social media opened the doors for blogs and applications to make their place in the drawing room. This gradual shift gave us Angelica Nwandu, the founder of a media company and owner of a popular Instagram account- ‘The Shade Room.’ Born to Nigerian parents, she lost her mother when she was just 6. But, this couldn’t stop her from pursuing her dream, and she graduated the accounting course with a 2.8 GPA. But, her love for writing bought her where she is now. The Oprah of our generation (Refinery 29), Celebrity Culture Savant (Complex), are some of the feathers in her cap. And, do you know that the complete empire was built with no capital investment? Yes, it was, indeed!
2. Katie Echevarria Rosen Kitchens: The long the name, the longer is the customer queue of the brand. Kitchen is the co-founder & editor-in-chief of a lifestyle company- FabFitFun. Yes, it is the same company which expanded its network in the UK and partnered with QVC. The company has a million-dollar valuation with 1 million+ subscribers. Well, it looks like 2020 will be both Fab and Fun for the leading entrepreneur. The firm is specialized in providing curated products to its family of customers at affordable prices. A sociology student by profession and writer by heart, she began the journey working as a writer for a magazine which talked about everything related to women; be it fashion, salon, fitness, etc. But, soon she decided to bring the products into the hand of the customers, and the rest is history.
3. Naomi Hirabayashi and Marah Lidey: Next in the list is the ‘tech-duo’ who is the co-founder of Shine, a mobile app which sends motivational messages to the subscribers. The two friends beat all the odds and stir the technical sector by storm. The 2018’s Women Health Game Changers stepped into the health sector, aiming to ensure the health and mental wellness. The two ‘gems’ were co-workers at DoSomething.org when they decided to give an inspirational hit to the life of people around them. Started in 2016, the platform shelters 2 million+ customers across 189 countries. Moreover, the mobile app got Series A funding of $5 million. Recently, Shine added two new features for grabbing the attention of the audience. First, the ‘audio stories’ which helps the audience get sound sleep, and second, the ‘Shine Squad’ which focuses on developing a stronger community. The recent features are proof that 2020 will be a SHINE(ing) year for the duo.
4. Emily Bernard: When in Paris, seeing Eiffel Tower is a must. And, the same applies to the Statue of Liberty situated in New York City. But, do you know that you can enjoy a balloon safari in South Africa, and watch a Sumo wrestling match in Tokyo? If the answer is ‘No,’ then PlacePass is the right destination for you. Founded by Emily Bernard, the platform is a suitable place to fill the thirst of wanderlusts. The female entrepreneur had roots in the foreign policy sector before she decided to develop the website which assists the travelers in booking adventurous trips. Founded in 2016, the platform is the home to 200,000+ experiences covering 180 countries. Another good news came from Marriott International and Southwest Airlines, which agreed to partner with the brand. As per the success rate, the firm is all-geared up for a rocking 2020!
