The cofounder story of Maite Diez-Canedo, MBA ’17, and Itziar Diez-Canedo, MS ’17, starts at home. Instead of a lemonade stand, the seven and five-year-old sold books outside their home.
“Hearing 10 rejections before lunch and just picking back up and trying to sell again. That’s a core memory,” Itziar says.
The two sisters kept working together, and studying together, both enrolling at Stanford GSB. Itziar came from a background in Fintech, and Maite in investment banking. “Being at the GSB together got us to truly think about what it would be like to start something together,” Maite says. “Not only did we think of the idea for Via, but also we tested our own co-founder dynamic.”
Via, which means bridge, is a company that aims to make the hiring process easier for remote workers, and their employers, across the globe. Although remote work is now standard, the women say contracts and hiring processes, work visas, and training programs aren’t set up for this new landscape. Via aims to change that.
“Hiring internationally is really complex, so what we’re doing is basically making it really simple. Our mission at Via is enabling any company to be a global organization,” Itziar says. #changemakers #video
