Mandy Potter is the CEO of Vancouver-based Jane, a woman-founded cannabis technology company with an impressive three-million dollar run rate in month five.
Mandy was previously the founder of Cleanify, an on-demand home services marketplace which raised five million in funding and was sold last year. Built with a mandate of equity and advancing gender parity, Mandy’s team at Cleanify was 50 per cent women and 50 per cent people of colour and at Jane it is 75 percent female run with 75 percent of people of colour.
As the director, speaker, and judge for the Vancouver Chapter of Lesbians Who Tech, as well as a panel guest for Women Who Code Vancouver, Mandy’s dedication to connecting the entrepreneur community along with members of marginalized groups is more than evident.
On this week’s THRIVE Podcast, Komal Minhas and Mandy discuss her experiences as a young entrepreneur and what’s budding in the BC cannabis industry.
