                        <h4>About Us</h4>

                        <p>​​Ajolla Inc. is a work company. We believe that reinventing the way people work represents our greatest opportunity to improve the way people live and society gets better.</p>

                        <p>We contribute to human progress by empowering people to start businesses, get their dream jobs, organize their professional lives, learn new skills, grow a global community, and have fun doing this.</p>

                        <p>Ajolla helps entrepreneurs find the resources and support they need to make their businesses a reality.  On this platform entrepreneurs can easily raise money and acquire customers that increases their chances at success.</p>

                        <h4>Our community.</h4>

                        <p>Ajolla is a global community built around entrepreneurship. People from across the United States can support Ajolla campaigns and businesses.</p>
                            
                        <p>Some of these campaigns are created in house by our team of entrepreneurs in residence. Most come from amazing entrepreneurs you probably haven’t heard of - from students at the local culinary school to the stay at home mom and her book club friends to computer programmers who just graduated.</p>

                        <p>Every entrepreneur on Ajolla has complete control over their business - and the opportunity to share it with a vibrant community of customers.</p>

                        <p>“Ajolla is a great alternative to raising money to launch a business, get customer feedback quickly, market the business and acquire customers.”</p>

                        <h4>Our mission.</h4>

                        <p>We built Ajolla to help bring business ideas to life. We measure our success as a company by how well we achieve that mission. We are focused on providing entrepreneurs a platform that gives access to four crucial elements in business. These are funds, customer  feedback, business marketing and customers. We believe these elements increase any business chances of success. We believe that by supporting entrepreneurs, we are creating a better world with better jobs, products and services as well as happier people.
                        <br>    
                        2021 is an ambitious year for the Ajolla team.</p>

                        <p>Some of our goals include launching 100 in house campaigns, getting our user base up to a million and launching 10,000 campaigns for our users.</p>

                        <h4>Our team.</h4>

                        <p>We’re an independent, founder-controlled startup of 8 people working remotely in Chicago, Toronto and Lagos. We have first-hand experiences with starting a company, raising money and  getting customer feedback. This is why we spend most of our time designing and building Ajolla, connecting people around entrepreneurship, great products and services, and we have a lot of fun doing this.</p>

                        <p>We’re developers, designers, support specialists, writers, musicians, painters, poets, gamers, robot-builders, chefs - you name it. Between us, we’ve supported or created close to 1,000 campaigns.</p>

                        <h4>For the press.</h4>
