Congrats on all you've achieved you were quite ahead of the curve in identifying that not all social networks are welcoming to women and we need safe spaces to meet, chat and plan... what are some of your fave stories that have come out of the GirlCrew community and what plans do you have in store for the future? @bhalash @elvacarri @ainemulloy @pamela_newenham

@bhalash @elvacarri @pamela_newenham @abadesi thank you! We've seen so many. I think my personal fave is when the plans of a member travelling in Japan fell apart so she put a call out in our travel group if anyone was in Japan. Another member (from a totally different city) was there by coincidence so they met to have beers together. We've also seen people get jobs, mind kids, house-sit, and all those little things that make a community. Our focus atm is growing in the USA.

@bhalash @ainemulloy @pamela_newenham @abadesi girls being rescued by other girls from the crew from bad dates! And the times people have posted last minute because they feel like doing something and seeing people jump on board. Feeling lonely can be so hard it’s those fun, little last minute get togethers that make me feel like humans really are all here for each other. Just sometimes we’re not sure how to show it :) the fact this has made it easier to reach out is still amazing to me.

I love that GirlCrew is based around activities (amongst other things). That's what social actually means. It veers away from the consumerist notion of feeds - which are essentially boredom product - and empowers women to do things in the real world, make friends and have fun.

@xanacan agree, the activity focus is smart and reduces some of the social awkwardness when there's an activity to do.

Wow! Thanks so much @riaface for hunting GirlCrew. Delighted to be here! Social networks as they are now have a problem, they don’t truly connect people and aren’t truly social. We solve this. From members sharing beers in Japan, becoming bridesmaids for each, building businesses, and even finding estranged parents - we’ve seen it all. We started off as a Tinder hack, then grew to a Facebook community, and have now created our own platform. In 2016, Facebook picked up on our project and flew us to Palo Alto to meet Mark zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg. And we’ve also showcased at SXSW. Our platform is all about connecting women - we believe in building a community that is smart, engaged and a little bit badass. From the small moments that make someone’s day, to support through tough times, and even championing human rights our platform is about women empowering women.

Such a great concept and movement - I especially like the different groups and the way it takes online relationships and friendships offline. A great way to make new friends when travelling or moving to a new city.
