You do not need to know everything about business to get started and position yourself as the go-to expert in your field. You do not even need to have something to sell to get started! The key is to be passionate about the change you want to see. Then, put one foot in front of the other to create that change. This is exactly what Furkan did. In this episode, she shares how she went from feeling frustrated by not seeing enough women like her in the Tech industry to launching her business and becoming the go-to expert in her field in less than two years. You become a reference in your industry when you support and surround yourself with experts who share the same mission.

Furkan lectures at the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Master’s program at Dún Laoghaire Institute of Art, Design and Technology. She is a board member for Women For Election, which supports women to succeed in Irish Politics. Her passion is leveraging women-in-tech leadership, diversity and empowering female founders globally.
