Building Real Partnerships + Collaboration with Women Founders - Exposing the Hidden Reality | Season 5 | Episode
We’re kicking off Season 5 of Exposing the Hidden Reality with two powerhouse guests who are changing the game for women in tech and entrepreneurship.
Join us live for a conversation with Caitie Sfingi and Maggie Sfingi, the co-founders of Merakite, a women-led software agency, and Kinhive, a new platform designed to connect women founders with the collaborators they need to bring their ideas to life.
In this live chat, we’ll explore:
✨ What real partnership looks like for women founders
✨ How to build a product without feeling lost or gatekept
✨ Why access, trust, and aligned values matter in tech
✨ How platforms like Kinhive are creating powerful new ecosystems for collaboration
Whether you're a founder, creative, or builder of any kind, this conversation will inspire you to rethink how you work, who you work with, and what’s possible when women support women.
Connect with Caitie Sfingi and Maggie Sfingi, and their brands, Merakite, and Kinhive on their website and Instagram.
