Startup Wigadoo: going Dutch online
Want to organize a weekend get-together with your MBA friends? You may want to think of using the startup Wigadoo. It was co-founded by CMO Uma Rajah, holder of an MBA from Insead, and someone who is familiar with the fun and pitfalls of organizing social gatherings.
She knows that payment is a hassle, especially for the one organizing the weekend. One friend does not have cash, another cancel at the last moment, a third leaves early without paying…..in the end it is always the same person who takes up the bill, the one who organised it all.
So here comes Wigadoo: a simple system that let’s you set up an online payment system to avoid financial trouble.
And in case you want to meet friends, but are short of ideas what to do, Wigadoo has set up an activity directory with adventurous things.
Another female internet hero involved in this project is Debbie Wosskow, founder of Mantra, an award winning PR agency and a representative on the Wall St Journal Europe’s Women in Business Taskforce. Brent Hoberman of Lastminute.com is an investor in Wigadoo.
Wigadoo pitched at Techcrunch in London.
