EVENT DETAILS |
Join us for a virtual panel discussion featuring three of the top female founders building the future of the internet.
In the not-so-distant future, Web3 will house our social interactions, personal identities, financial institutions, & much more. But as many champion Web3 as the next phase of the internet, we at Female Founders Fund know that the promise of a smarter, better, brighter future can only be achieved with innovation from diverse founders.
On Tuesday February 1st at 5pm EST, FFF Founding Partner Anu Duggal will moderate a virtual discussion between three of the top female founders in the industry: Renee Russo of Glow Labs, Mica Le John of Idoru, & Cokie Hasiotis of Twali. We'll dive into the major differences between Web2 & Web3, trends like decentralized identity, loyalty rewards & social tokens, DAOs & the future of work.
Panelists will share their thoughts on why the role of a community member means more now than ever before, the importance of collaboration between DAOs, possible futures for creator funds, Web3 culture, & much more. (No idea what any of this means? Get up to speed via our Resources Guide at the bottom of this event page.)
Renee Russo is an entrepreneur, engineer, & co-founder of Glow Labs. Glow Labs is a white-label loyalty rewards program on the blockchain. Glow Labs supports brand partners through a fully self-service & customizable platform, allowing them to create their own micro-economy in the metaverse. Brands transitioning from Web2 to Web3 will need custom NFT rewards, loyalty coins, & automatic rewarding in both the physical & online world.
Renee has deep Web3 knowledge having launched her own NFT project, DinoMonks, & being an active community member in the NFT space. In previous roles, she was the lead frontend engineer & application owner at JP Morgan, where she built & scaled a company-wide application from the bottom up.
