GeekGirl finally pinned down one of our UK Co-Founders this week for an interview while she was in town from New York! We sat down with Josefine (Josie) Hedlund, who aside from Co-Founding GeekGirl Meetup UK, is also a Project Director for AnalogFolk, a global creative agency. Josie has travelled, worked in numerous cities and has had an interesting path that led her to discovering Production in the creative industries - leading her all the way to her new role in New York. Lots of great inspiration in this one for anyone looking to take a a big leap and move for work! And some lovely little stories about the origins of GeekGirl! Enjoy! Twitter: @josefinehedlund

GeekGirl headed to San Francisco - tech capital of the world - and caught up with the original UK GeekGirl and Founder of Her, the Lesbian & Bisexual dating app for women, Robyn Exton. In this chat, we talk through Robyn's inspiration for starting Her, how she went from idea to Silicon Valley, AND, how GeekGirl Meetup got going in the UK. This is a great podcast for anyone thinking of starting a tech startup, and of course, for anyone who loves GeekGirl as much as we do!
