About The Host

Camilla is a Forbes 30under30 honoree, TEDx speaker, and EY Entrepreneur of The Year Finalist, who started her first company in education technology at age 19. During her time as CEO, she raised more than $10M and ended up managing a 40-person team before her departure in 2019 when she sold her share of the company. As a female entrepreneur, Camilla experienced the inequality and significant unconscious bias women meet in the startup and tech world, which led her to founding Celestial - a women’s wealth & entrepreneurship education platform, offering online courses on personal finance, wealth creation strategies, and best practises of entrepreneurship. Camilla’s mission is to create a space for women to learn about, explore and step into their full economic potential.
