ShrinkIo

Hi I’m Tomás Mota, I’m 17 and I do not want to pursue any higher educations, I believe in the entrepreneur mindset and therefor I want to build my own company and be my own boss.


I am developing a mobile app, both for Android and IOS, that will help fight and hopefully, overcome, depression, anxiety and bullying. <br /> Now a days we live in a community that is based in seeing who's the most followed, who has more money, who travels to the fanciest places, but let's face it, we all know that life is not all rainbows and sunshines, therefore I decided to build this community, or social network, so people are able to share this "less good" moments and talk to someone that has gone through them.<br /><br /> For that to happen I need investments, to start the company, to get psychiatrists to lead me on the right direction to help the most people possible, to be able to pay for advertisements so the app can reach as many people as possible.<br /><br />

For that to happen, I am joining a program on Founder Institute that has a 600€ registrarion fee, with that program I’m going to get the help that Ineed, from structuring better the idea in my head, to pitching investors.


I am very passionate about this subject, I have and have had many people around me who are going and have gone through depression, so this is personal to me, I’m doing this so I can help each and every one of the 600 million people fighting depression daily.
