Spher emerged from a shared understanding of the challenges faced by underserved individuals within our society. The co-founders, driven by personal experiences, recognized the struggles encountered by those who do not conform to societal norms. One co-founder, navigating the complexities of not fitting the typical image associated with his country, joined forces with a woman who had endured constant fear and discomfort due to societal expectations.
The pivotal moment that sparked the creation of Spher occurred when the male co-founder witnessed a female friend fall victim to an attack. This tragic incident served as a wake-up call, compelling him to recognize the urgent need for a united front among underserved populations to enhance collective safety. The decision was made to concentrate efforts on supporting women, who often find themselves vulnerable during commutes, nightlife activities, and even online interactions.
Spher aims to address the safety concerns faced by women through the development of a specialized app. This platform facilitates a community-driven approach, enabling women to support one another in staying safe during their journeys home and while navigating the digital realm. By fostering collaboration and mutual assistance, Spher strives to empower underserved communities and create a safer environment for everyone, starting with women who deserve the right to move freely without fear.
