Every year, FEM-START organizes the FEM-START Up Awards, to showcase female founders and leadership!
This year’s edition was an absolute blast! An amazing day filled with inspiring pitches, informative masterclasses by experts, and talks by our own founders! We were so happy to see a diverse crowd, filled with both new and familiar faces. A great day, filled with like-minded women connecting with one another.
Of course, the main focus of the FEM-START Up Awards is to give female entrepreneurs a platform and space to pitch their start-ups and their idea. We always aim to support women on their business journey toward growth.
And so, without further ado, meet the winner of this year’s FEM-START Up Awards!
Micky Chen, founder of Minite won the 2022 FEM-START Up Awards!
Minite is a digital platform that connects vetted student freelancers with companies to perform study-related work to help companies grow and meet future talent. Minite aims to connect students looking for relevant resume experience to organisations looking for new and fresh talent.
Minite was founded by sister duo Micky and Linky in 2020, based on the belief that every student should have a chance to build a strong CV, and every business an opportunity to grow and a gateway to talent.
The judges were blown away by Micky’s strong pitch and the idea behind Minite. Micky won out of ten notable start-ups and a fully-arranged trip to Silicon Valley, a fantastic package by Lancôme, and access to the FEM-START community of experts and peers.
