Olga Egorsheva
Olga’s first taste of entrepreneurship arrived in the form of a family photography business which she founded with her father back in 2005. From there, she broadened her global expertise by working across a diverse array of cities, including Oslo, Paris and Bonn. Following an MBA, which involved hands-on corporate entrepreneurship experience, she settled in London with an ambitious idea to disrupt the content search and licensing field forever. Joining forces with two co-founders, this new venture was announced to the world from the stages of TechCrunch Europe.
Lobster is an AI-powered platform which enables brands, agencies and the media to licence visual content directly from social media users and cloud archives. It’s quickly become a truly global phenomenon, with offices in London and Moscow, and an ever-extending international fanbase. Aside from TechCrunch Disrupt, other speaking opportunities have included the IAB European Advertising Congress, Data Natives, Pirate Summit and Social Media Week.
