An ‘Iron Lady’ of Afro-american background, who operates from San Diego (USA).

An ‘Iron Lady’, believed to be a ‘trusted leader’ when it comes to bridging strategic business initiatives with expert IT implementation.

An ‘Iron Lady’ who successfully spearheaded projects in the tech business for industry giants, like Cymer, Allergan, Bank of Montreal, Novartis and Dow Agrosciences, among others.   

This is no ‘Trial by Social Media’, but a ‘Knowledge-drop’.… Grab your coffee, take a sip and hold-on to your ios, or android: SOoo…let’s get ready to rumble, ‘Lady ‘SARITA HINES, ROUND 1 !!!

I. DO YOU TRUST THE PROCESS ?

1. #ADMP AWARDS: Please introduce yourself, what you do and your Trustabit startUp?   

SARITA HINES: Hello, I am Saritta Hines, Founder and CEO of TrustaBit. We are creating a solution that will automate the compensation process for delayed flights.

We also give travelers the freedom of choice as compensation can be dispensed in various forms (fiat, TAB tokens, or miles at the airline’s discretion) and our TAB tokens can be redeemed in various industries, through our retail partners.

Our goal is to mobilize the traveling consumer and we are using smart contracts and blockchain technology to do it!

 

2. #ADMP AWARDS: From the ‘Sunny Side of San Diego’ (USA)!! – Can you please, tell us what is your concept’s  value proposition ?

SH: TrustaBit streamlines complex airline processes by removing the need for manual labor and inevitable human error. You can catch a beta-showcase (31/08), made with the Boston Consulting Group (#BCG) and #Out-in-tech in Los Angeles (USA), here. 

 

#FACILITATING TRAVEL

3. #ADMP AWARDS: Oho! You pretend to solve …sorry let us re-phrase this: You might be able to solve the troublesome ‘‘Double-Bookings’ problem, that has had travel executives, in tears for most of the 21st century??…. How?  

SH: Our smart contracts code the rules outlined by the client airline. Once certain criteria are met (a flight delayed more than 45 minutes, for example), the traveler will receive notice of their compensation via email. No calls to make, no hassle!  

 

4. #ADMP AWARDS: No Hassle! Don’t we all like it! :)) – Traveling has become such a drag, nowadays! ADMPers travel a lot, and ‘complain a lot too!

The ‘Checkout Price’ paid online are always different from the 1st price on Display, when you first landed on the platform! :

Double-booking has almost encoded in its default setting the ‘E-commerce malicious price hike’ experienced by all online shoppers between the moment you see the price on a website for the first time and the moment you proceed to the check-out and want to pay for your ticket

–> All of a sudden a plane ticket that was say $60, is now ‘hiked up’ to $67, just enough to not make it worth your time, should you wish to complain.:((

 

Often, there’s no-one you can complain too, anyway, when it happens… the result?:

The company is always leaving the users with the feeling that </RanT> you’ve been digitally had, you’ve been computingly took, you’ve been online-hoodwinked, led crypto-astray, run social-media-amok and, and,… acrostic-bamboozled, altogether !! :(( – </EndOfRanT>

Thanks! …Hum-hum… Can you show your order book, please ?

SH: While we cannot name names, for legal reasons, we can say that we are in talks with a few major international carriers.

 

 

 

5. #ADMP AWARDS: Pitty! :(( – We’ll refer to your PR Pages, below. How can investors support you, now ?

SH: Potential investors can support us through our pre-ICO token sale, which can be happily found around here: https://www.startengine.com/trustabit1

We are also speaking to accredited investors, VCs and Angel Investors. They can reach us directly at info@trustabit.io

 

#INVESTINTRUST

6. #ADMP AWARDS: As a ‘Lady of the Blockchain’, how do you intend to one day maybe, break the ‘glass-ceiling’?

SH: The disparity in funding for women is staggering. Forbes reported that women owned companies received 2% of VC funding in 2017 while male-owned companies received 79%.

This is not because women are not seeking funding. It is because we receive smaller checks! Many VCs claim to support female led companies, yet few put their money where their mouth is, so it’s up to us.

We can resolve this conflict by supporting each other. It’s the only way to continue to close the gap and eliminate the proverbial glass ceiling!

The way I see it: Glass can be broken with the right amount of force. We are that Force!” (SH)

 

II. ARE YOU FEELING THE FORCE?

7. #ADMP AWARDS: We like that! :)) – Entrepreneurs should have a ‘chip on their shoulders’ or a ‘Bigger aim’ like ‘Be pan-african’,’Save the planet’ or something…–>  ADMPers believe that it is that very ‘thing’, that ‘proverbial force’, that will drive the Startuper, to the finishing line of its project, regardless of the many troubles coming its way! Call it ‘backbone’, ‘resilience’ or even ‘Iron Will to succeed’! 

– Saritta, tell us, as a Lady of the #Blockchain, have you ever encountered ‘Online Toxic Masculinity’ (#OTM)?

SH: I won’t call out a particular group, but yes. …I did…How can I make it simple for all?… I have experienced harassment in a blockchain forum. I don’t hold it against the entire group, yet it is unfortunate that these types of situations happen so frequently.

 

8. #ADMP AWARDS: Common place! Let me break it down for you: We are still… just about.. doing ‘fine’ on the ‘Politically correct’ front!  :)) – Moving, on swiftly…Who could be your TOP 5 Ladies of the #Blockchain?

SH: That is a tough question – don’t make me chose! :)) …Hmm…(She pauses) Yeah.. Everipedia actually published a great comprehensive list of women in blockchain. You may see a familiar name here:😉 https://everipedia.org/wiki/women-in-blockchain-and-cryptocurrency/

 

 

9. #ADMP AWARDS: Final words to women in tech’ around the world and our 10000 monthly  ‘compulsive’readers?

SH: I’d say forget about the glass ceiling. The way I see it –> Glass can be broken with the right amount of force. We are that Force !

#ADMP AWARDS: #Hashtag words!

#ADMP: #Hashtag, you’re far too kind!:))#AcrostatiC

 

#END.
