Go Against the Flow is a documentary film on the leading female cofounders of technology startups such as Cloud Flare, GetAround, Mightybell, Kabam, Zady, ZinePak, Women Who Code, and Rockhealth. These women range from college dropouts to Harvard MBA's to Shark Tank winners, and they share their candid and introspective insights on becoming successful female entrepreneurs - from getting started on concept, building technology, hiring, getting funded and scale to finally, managing work-life balance and navigating the male-dominated venture capital ecosystem in the US.
Award-winning entrepreneur and documentarian Charu Sharma bring together these women who started companies from scratch, scaled their organizations to span across several continents, raised millions of dollars, faced failure but came out victorious, and loved every minute of the challenge. These inspirational, gritty, audacious, and passionate women, in spite of naysayers or failures, have chosen to create their own flow and act on their ideas and convictions. Their stories are inspirational for anyone wanting to start their own business.
The film premiered at LinkedIn offices worldwide on 19 November 2015 and was listed as one of Hackbright Academy's 5 films for women in tech and entrepreneurship.
