Anna Guenther is the Chief Bubble Blower / Co-Founder of PledgeMe, New Zealand’s first crowdfunding platform. She has worked for the New Zealand Government, MIT, and completed her Masters in Entrepreneurship with a focus on crowdfunding.

In her day job, she focusses on building the crowdfunding community in New Zealand - and is constantly amazed by the creative people she gets to play with. She is passionate about social entrepreneurship, English literature, and coffee. Half American, half kiwi, she has travelled around the world for work – but always comes back to call New Zealand home. PledgeMe is about to hit the $2million pledged milestone, with over 400 community and creative projects having successfully met their goals.
