RECENT NEWS: 1- We recently partnered with Amazon AWS which will enable us to build out our new urban planning platform by the end of Q2. 2- TrubAI were accepted into Chloe Capital's four-month accelerator for tech founders of seed+ stage companies from underrepresented and historically marginalized backgrounds. Chloe Capital was one of five organizations selected by the NYCEDC to launch an accelerator aimed at expanding the Founder Fellowship, a program dedicated to supporting underrepresented entrepreneurs building tech and tech-enabled businesses across New York City.
MOTIVATION: I interviewed for a large tech company in the mobility space for a GM role in Kenya, and they did not hire me but took and implemented my ideas I submitted that were a part of the interview process. I was a bit perturbed and wanted to disrupt their market share but I ve since matured ha! However I am a sailor in the car whenever I experience congestion. So we set out to solve the problem in urban environments which will ultimately lessen my sailor bursts.
FUN FACT: Adero used to be a professional background dancer for various hip-hop and r&b artists in college.
