  • At VINA, we’re dedicated to building global communities of women who make each other feel supported, inspired, free, and above all else, happy.

    We started this company in Summer 2015 with the belief that all it takes is one friend to change your whole life. With the right set of people to support you in your journey and a culture of community over competition, we can change the world in all the best ways.

    The Hey! VINA app debut (truly the MVP) received accolades by mainstream media around the world, from television shows to the New York Times to Glamour and ELLE and more! Within its first 2 weeks had more than 100,000 users.

    In Summer 2016, we received $1.5M seed funding from NEA, Greylock, Wildcat Ventures, and Tinder Inc., and opened our product for global use.
