In episode eight of The Flipside, hosts Sali Sasi and Julie Stevanja are joined by Lana Hopkins and Juliana Di Simone. the co-founders of web3 platform some·place

Looking in on the metaverse as a newcomer (and speaking only for myself), it can feel like a highly masculine space, with people like Mark Zuckerberg and the likes of Jake Paul already staking their claim in the new world. But some·place is doing things differently, by creating a limitless destination in web3 that feels human and approachable for women and underrepresented people.

The key ingredients in their “pie” and what makes some·place so unique and special is the way they have approached the design, by considering it as a foundational element in the product, rather than an afterthought.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

• The challenges female founders face when seeking out funding for a new business.
• How some·place is humanising web3.
• What it really means to interact with the digital world in 2022.
