Hadassa Rorke - Co-Founder/Director @Famly
âI love operating as a start-ups, I love the pace and having to adapt to make an idea work. My experience from working with Citydeal.de (Groupon) before the launch in Europe, expanding into the global market and merging with Groupon USA will be of great use in growing famly. Working with the international teams, streamlining their Customer Experience and Reducing Refunds across Groupon countries has given me the right knowledge to make famly a success. Other international start-ups that I have worked with and for are 9 flats, Wimdu (both Airbnb Clones), Zendesk & Airtasker here in Australia.
Also I am a mother of 2 girls and I know the daily struggle of parents. What you need and want for your children and can solve a problem that every parent experiences.â

Claire Jenkis - Founder @Vetchat
Claire is a lifelong animal lover, devout admirer of her gorgeous Kelpie âRedâ, Veterinarian and a passionate problem solver. Having spent the past 13 years caring for animals as a neighbourhood vet in Melbourne, Sydney and the UK, Claire was frustrated by the current pet health system where the the cost, the inconvenience or lack of out of hours services provided by local brick and mortar clinics means pet-parents are often left without options to get answers in their time of need. This was the inspiration to create Vetchat so that Vets, pets and parents can work together without boundaries.
