In this inspiring story, we'll take a closer look at the journey of a female entrepreneur who is not only making waves in the cybersecurity industry but is also empowering other women to pursue their dreams in this highly competitive field. From overcoming stereotypes to paving the way for future generations of women, this story is about resilience, determination, and unwavering commitment to success. In this episode, we are joined by Victoria Germanova, the Founder and CEO of Callity, a security buyer/vendor matching platform, to share her experiences of building a business in the male-dominated world of cybersecurity. Victoria talks about the idea behind Callity, her experience in sales, and how the sales process in cyber is broken.
