Life and Career
Amanda Spann was born in Ghana on January 16, 1987. She currently lives in Chicago, Illinois and works as a marketing consultant and app entrepreneur. Before entering the technology field she was hesitant because she wasn’t skilled in coding. This caused her to just focus on the “marketing, operations and ecosystem development” aspect of being an entrepreneur for her first few years. In 2014 she launched her business called “tiphub,” which she started to in order for African markets to have supported technology and create more social enterprise led innovation. The business focuses more on rural areas rather than cities. Spann talked about this being a difficult process due to having to manage it on her own. Prior to this Spann had served as Chief Marketing Officer of Blerdology, whose focus was engage with and support the Black tech community. Spann also ran BRANDSPANpr which was an innovation identity agency. Her most recent project is “The App Accelerator,” which seeks to help non-technical engineers build their first mobile app.
