Join us for another Startup Confessions - our candid, no-BS conversation series with founders who have actually built, scaled, and navigated the highs and lows of the startup journey.

This week, we’re excited to host Loucineh Mardirossian, Founder of TruRex.

Loucineh brings over 20 years of experience across global communications and corporate affairs, working with some of the world’s most recognised organisations including Pfizer, AbbVie, Johnson & Johnson, HP, and Quant Network.

She’s also a founder who has built from the ground up - launching Zart Global, a direct-to-consumer demi-fine jewellery brand that challenged industry norms with size and gender inclusivity, growing to serve customers worldwide.

Now, with TruRex, Loucineh is tackling a problem we’ve all experienced - trust. TruRex is a trust-first social discovery platform built for a world that’s lost faith in fake reviews and is ready for something real.

What to expect:

A raw and honest conversation about building across corporates, scale-ups, and startups
Lessons from launching and growing a global consumer brand
Insights into building trust in today’s digital world
The real story behind TruRex
Audience Q&A - ask anything

Whether you’re an early-stage founder, aspiring entrepreneur, or just curious about startups - this is your chance to hear the real story behind the journey.
