Vote-Preneurs – Tech Experts’ ActiVote App is Helping to Make Democracy Work
Manage episode 342947865 series 1940891
After selling their successful supply-chain software-development business, these tech experts didn’t know what to do with their lives. But Sara Gifford and Victor Allis shared a common passion to make democracy work better. So they co-founded ActiVote, a first-of- its-kind non-partisan app, to simplify elections and empower U.S. citizens to vote.
With America now sailing into the mid-term election cycle, what better subject to talk about than this App and an entrepreneur who helped develop it. Richard “Capt’n’” Henderson interviews Vote-Preneur Victor Allis, to discuss his journey developing a successful App (www.activote.net).
Subjects discussed in podcast include:
• How the two entrepreneurs got together prior to co-founding ActiVote • What motivated Victor to use his tech talents to improve democracy? • How does ActiVote turn non-voters into voters? • Were investors required to create the app? • The biggest technology challenges faced in getting a workable, downloadable App • Does the App have to be monetized to keep it viable? • A “home-based hybrid model” for employees working from home • Victor’s “5 minute rule” - What’s that all about? • Plans for expanding app use before election day
