Theodora Chatzipavlidis
CEO & Co-Founder of Velout
As the CEO & Co-Founder of Velout, I am passionate about leveraging technology to address one of the most pressing social challenges of our time: loneliness. Through innovative AI and Machine Learning algorithms, my team and I have built a travel-tech solution that fosters authentic human connections while empowering solo travelers to explore the world in a personalized and meaningful way.
In 2024, I was honored with the Digital Female Leader Award in the Mobility sector, sponsored by Deutsche Bahn, recognizing my commitment to innovation and leadership in tackling global issues through entrepreneurship. As a female founder with a multicultural background, I am driven to inspire diverse leaders to harness technology and create sustainable social impact. With a vision for a more connected world, I aim to transform the travel industry into a force for inclusion, diversity, and empowerment.
