About me
Mum of three, CEO and Founder of Hub Dot Simona is passionate about disrupting the way we network. A former Goldman Sachs suit turned jazz singer, Simona saw the women around her as passionate individuals with multifaceted lives but whose stories and synergies would never meet because of the societal labels that defined them - a title, a job description, a CV. Starting in 2012 with 98 friends around her kitchen table she began changing this status quo and launched Hub Dot, a global movement that gives women the freedom to explore and start a conversation that begins ‘What is your story?’ and not, ‘What do you do?’ In celebrating their totality, Simona has changed the way we communicate, giving women the opportunity to make authentic connections that can turn into something extraordinary.
