Chris Sheldrick is the Co-Founder & CEO of what3words, a business that stimulates business and economic growth by providing addresses to the poorly addressed parts of the world. Currently around 75% of the world (135 countries) suffers from inconsistent, complicated or inadequate addressing systems. This means that around 4 billion people are invisible; unable to report crime; unable to get deliveries or receive aid; and unable to exercise many of their rights as citizens because they simply have no way to communicate where they live. What3words is revolutionizing the world’s address book by assigning a unique 3-word address for every 3m square in the world. Their service can optimise government services, enable the universal inclusion of citizens in society and offer transformational benefits to the logistics, aid, and microfinance sectors in the developing world.

Join us to hear about Chris’ journey and the story behind what3words. He will share the biggest challenges he has faced along with recommendations for start-uppers. Chris will also discuss the advantages of running a venture that generates positive impact for society.
