As a leading entrepreneur, Fatima Zaidi is a powerhouse when it comes to entrepreneurship, podcasting, and supporting fellow women founders. When she’s not running two companies, you can find her writing for notable publications, lecturing at the University of Toronto, acting as Co-Chair of the #Tech4SickKids council, or speaking on global stages. But rest assured that even with so much on her to-do list, her team will be receiving live photo updates of her adorable cat, Charlie (which everyone happily welcomes).
Fatima bleeds creativity, passion, and gumption. She’s continued to push the needle forward for brands and agencies working with on-demand audio. Anyone that gets the opportunity to work alongside Fatima will clearly see her dedication and drive for everything that lands on her plate – especially if it’s some of Toronto’s best tacos.
