Raimonda is an insightful business strategist, who is passionate about helping entrepreneurs and businesses that create a positive social impact.

She is a vocal supporter of women in business, and her focus for 2018 is to champion women in technology and innovation, and build connections between female entrepreneurs from across the globe, helping them to share knowledge, support and inspiration.

Following two successful Women in Business events and several Start-up workshops in 2017, this year, Raimonda hosted 14 international business speakers for her first International Women in Business Summit to celebrate International Women’s day and raise money for Best Beginning Charity.

Through her work as a business consultant at Allied Powers (2015- present), Raimonda has become a leading authority in crowdfunding and start-up funding. In 2015 she co-founded her own platform, Crowd Velocity. She now works as a mentor providing the support and training needed for a successful start-up, through her online learning platform www.crowd-velocity.org. As a mentor she helps clients raise funding for growth, prepare their funding pitch, and figure out strategy. She has recently launched a course on business planning, where she shares her strategies in how to plan and prepare your business for success.

Motivated by a desire to work on projects that do environmental and social good, Raimonda founded her first business, Wefill, in 2011 aged 21, and developed an innovative water purification system and vending machine which dispenses clean water and flavoured drinks into the customer’s own bottle, reducing waste and using minimal resources. Having entered the technology industry by chance rather than design, Raimonda is passionate about encouraging more women in to the technology industry, and is a member of London (Global) Tech Advocates.  She is also an Ambassador for the World Health Innovation Summit, for which she consults on the subject of crowdfunding.
