As an innovator, it’s good to be the odd one out

I stood out at Cambridge University, where I was one of a handful of women studying mechanical engineering. I stand out now, as a female founder in the male-dominated tech sector. This might sound like a lonely journey, but once you learn how to use being the odd one out to your advantage, it can be a superpower.
