OUR VISION

Inspiration

We are group of female experts and would like to help other women around the globe to not only find jobs they aspire to do but also create the jobs for others and help the community. we believe in positive changes ,'no matter how small, no matter where'.

What it does

Our idea is a webapp, a digital platform that should enable newly formed and first-year start-ups to find affordable and supportive lenders in the space of green loan opportunities.

How we built it

on visual studio code, using react framework

Challenges we ran into

The main challenges we ran into was choosing the right technology to build our digital platform. Whilst we have different strong skillset in area of consultancy and start-ups , we had limited knowledge in building a functional web-based application. Two of team member looked up some tutorial and reached out to technical mentor to get guidance on building a web app. Through some guidance, we were able to create minimum viable segment for the prototype. Additional challenges included co-ordination of the skills for each smaller task assigned from designing logo, research and also setting up meeting suiting different timezones.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

The idea that we are going to work further helping women startups in underdeveloped countries while working sustainably and producing one stop platform for startups.

What we learned

There is not much info on the current market in this area or support needed for successful launch , development of business idea around consultancy platform connecting startups with green loan lenders.
