My name is Chandra Jacobs and I am the Founder of tripchi, a mobile app that helps you make the most of your time at the airport
I have a background in tech, innovation and product development, especially as applied to web and mobile apps in the entrepreneurship arena, but have recently moved more into marketing and strategy post-MBA, as well entrepreneurship. As a product marketer, I have gravitated toward digital marketing as well as analytics/data mining, which fits well with my techie geek bent.
I love creative and challenging projects in the emerging technology product space, and have a passion for travel, so I thought why not combine these interests? This led me to launch my latest startup, tripchi. Like many others, I also love to travel but hate airports. So I started a company to change that!
We've recently launched a fundraising campaign on Indiegogo (bit.ly/tripchiIndie) for our airport app, tripchi, where you can read more about us. Our goal is to help travelers worldwide have a better airport experience. tripchi serves up personalized recommendations of things for you to do in the airport, including deals on food, drink, and shopping, and of course detailed content to explore and navigate the airport.
