StartSomeGood Fireside Chats share the inspiring and insightful stories of social entrepreneurs who have paved their paths and hustled for good. Their stories often highlight the ebbs and flows of their own social entrepreneurship journey, and through authentic, honest and genuine storytelling, provide a window into how others can travel their own entrepreneurship path.

At this fireside chat, we are featuring Azima Dhanjee, Co-Founder & CEO of ConnectHear.

As a Child of Deaf Adult (CODA), Azima grew up witnessing the struggles her parents faced due to the lack of accessibility and awareness for the Deaf community. This motivated her to establish ConnectHear, a social enterprise focused on providing sign language interpretation services to the Deaf community in Pakistan through video-based and in-person mediums.

Through her passion for using technology and design thinking to empower the differently-abled, Azima has achieved great success with ConnectHear, including launching the first sign language recognition AI in Pakistan. Her efforts have been recognized by various publications and organizations, including Forbes, Pioneers Post, and the Standard Chartered Women in Tech Competition.

During the event, Azima will share her insights on social entrepreneurship, disability rights, and leadership, as well as her experiences representing Pakistan as a Global Encounters participant and Cultural Exchange Ambassador in Kenya, Senegal, and the United States.

This is a unique opportunity to learn from a visionary entrepreneur and gain insights into the social entrepreneurial ecosystem in Pakistan. Don't miss out on this inspiring conversation with Azima Dhanjee.
