Jenny-Ann Axson Johnson

Tilly was born out of the two founders’ personal experience with (in)fertility and is now on a mission to revolutionize support for others on the same journey.

200 million couples try to conceive each year, 50 million need treatment – yet current care is fragmented and reactive and neglects the well-established psychological effects of fertility struggles.

Tilly is the first platform that provides personalized support throughout the entire journey, and across both physical and mental issues. By using a data-driven approach and gathering tools that target a range of pain points in ONE place, Tilly decreases time to pregnancy and reduces unnecessary fertility stress. The app was released last year and already has users from more than 40 countries.

Jenny Ann Ax:son Johnson spent 10 years in EdTech prior to founding Tilly. She’s now creating the tool she wishes she had herself.

Mahiar Afrooz

Roya is an NFT marketplace where creators and buyers meet. The creators,  or artists, digitize their art into a collection of limited NFT’s. Whenever a  creators work is sold, even after the initial sale, the artist automatically  collects royalties.

As of today, NFT’s give the highest financial return to creators when  compared to Youtube and Facebook combined. In other words, its the best  way for creators to monetize their content. At Roya, we strive towards  creating a progressive, fair platform that helps to lead, improve and contribute  towards the development of blockchain technologies.

Roya’s mission is also to transform lifestyle brands into web3. This means  Roya helps to not only digitize content which in itself also helps add quality  content to the NFT marketplace, but also to conceptualize, curate and  support brands and organisations as they move into web3. Roya aims to be the most relevant player in web3 digital transformations for lifestyle brands.

Mahiar Afrooz is a serial international entrepreneur with a track record in predicting future disruptions in web3.
