It Takes a C-Tribe Village: Malin Pettersen, VP of North American Operations at Vev Design
Preface:The thought leaders, gamechangers, and innovators that we look up to are often impacted by the same thing: they’ve been exposed to people, environments, and interactions that have helped shape and define who they are today.
It takes a C-Tribe Village Podcast aims to identify, dissect, and celebrate the unsung heroes, things, and experiences that have impacted the greatest minds of our generation and how these individuals are paying it forward for those to come.
Guest: Malin Pettersen, VP of North American Operations, Vev Design
Interviewer: Sahr Saffa, Founder at C-Tribe Society and VP of Canadian Operations at AutonomIQ
Show Notes
“I felt like an alien a lot of the time. I think it’s because of the way I carry myself, and the way I dress, and the fact that I have an accent. There’s a lot of factors that make me alien-ish. Sometimes it’s challenging because it feels like you have to prove something and you have to work 10x harder in order for them to believe you, trust you, trust your ability, and that you’re good at what you do… but I think it’s [the tech industry] going in the right direction and it’s obviously a conversation that needs to be had.”
Malin's final research paper on How Might Changes in the Fashion Industry affect of the Role of a Project Manager at Fashion Scout
Brands mentioned: Vev Design, Holzweiler, Saks Potts, Sara Toronto
Bio: A fashionista turned tech businesswoman, Malin (@malincornelia) graduated with First Class Honours at Winchester University (UK) studying fashion and business, worked as a PR executive for Scandinavian fashion success Holzweiler. Just recently she moved across the Atlantic Ocean to establish a design enterprise software called Vev Design in the North American Market; all by the age of 22! Malin has had an unconventional path to where she is now, working retail floors to afford contact lenses, to making lunch for 30 + people and 16 hour work days (as an intern you do whatever you have to do), just to be part of the art that is fashion. Her well-connected network offered her the opportunity to scale the Norwegian Startup, Vev, abroad. Malin is a firm believer in young leaders, and thinks the best way to describe her (and her career) is ‘a jack of all trades’.
