Qlode, a pioneering tech startup, is pleased to announce that its founder, Eleanora Barkun, participated as a Semifinalist in the prestigious She Loves Tech Europe Semifinal pitch competition. The event took place during the vibrant TNW Conference on June 20-21, showcasing top female entrepreneurs and their innovative solutions.
Eleanora Barkun was selected among the top 10 women-led startups for her outstanding contributions to technology and sustainability. Her participation highlighted Qlode's commitment to developing solutions that not only enhance profitability but also positively impact various aspects of society, from environmental conservation to lifestyle improvements.
The competition featured a diverse range of startups, each presenting unique solutions aimed at addressing significant societal challenges. Each participant had just 5 minutes to highlight the key points of their innovative solutions.
Every female founder created a distinctive solution that not only focuses on boosting profitability but also has a positive impact on people's lives, the environment, habits, relationships, and much more. Congratulations to the finalist - Feminai, who presented a solution for detecting early breast cancer.
Reflecting on the experience, Eleanora Barkun shared,: "Participating in the She Loves Tech Europe Semifinals was a tremendous opportunity to connect with exceptional entrepreneurs and industry professionals. I was the last to present, and although I felt a bit nervous, I didn’t show it. I had plenty of time to listen to all the speakers and was impressed by the level of startups and women founders on the stage. I was just incredibly proud to be among all outstanding entrepreneurs, doctors, scientists, outstanding students, and business professionals. I admired every five-minute presentation!
I believe each participant deserved first place for their contributions to people and the world. I can only imagine how difficult it was for the judges to make their decisions.
We will continue working on our product. However, what we have achieved since March fills me with admiration and respect for my team. That’s what I felt."
The event provided a platform for insightful discussions and valuable feedback from the esteemed panel of judges.
Eleanora noted, "The jury's feedback and questions were instrumental in guiding our future strategy and development efforts."
Qlode extends its gratitude to the organizers for hosting such an impactful event and acknowledges the valuable insights gained through participation. The company remains committed to advancing its innovative solutions and contributing to a sustainable future through technology.
