Her business was inspired by a desire to solve business problems for the exhibition and hospitality industries and her mission to improve the ways jobs are distributed.

In our talk, she shares why she thinks it is important to differentiate between a social enterprise and a business with social impact. You will hear about Impact Investing, becoming a B corp and the entrepreneurial challenges along the way.
Xania also shares lessons learned when it comes to relationships, why you need a good EQ and why having passion is not enough when starting a business. Xania for sure is one of the most driven young women I ever met and I learned a lot about the ups and downs of being a founder. But hear for yourself.

- According to Xania, B Corporations are the kind of businesses that need to emerge. If you want to find out more about going the B Corp road you can find loads of valuable information on the website of B Lab, a non-profit organisation dedicated to using the power of business as a force for good.
