Karen believes that technology has the power to make the world a better place and that it is imperative that every person has access and opportunity to do so. Being one of the first few employees at Plug and Play Insurtech, she helped grow the program to over 80 corporate partners, take the program global by launching offices in China, Singapore, Japan, and Munich, and has been a key resource in helping corporates navigate the innovation landscape. She then lead Plug and Play’s expansion into Africa.
Recently, she left Plug and Play to pursue how the future of innovation will look in emerging markets. She spent time in Uganda consulting at the Innovation Village and works with startup hubs in Burundi and Nigeria.
When she is not working with innovation hubs, you can find her with her drone out exploring new places.
