About Zoë Chapman
By the age of 24, Zoë had already worked her way up in the London Stock Exchange, despite a hidden story of homelessness, years of domestic abuse, and multiple suicide attempts due to her mental health. As the daughter of a musician turned small business owner, she only had the experience of struggling to make a career out of your passion. Yet, after inventing the world’s smallest toilet while potty training her son and providing end-of-life care for her father, years later, in the midst of a global pandemic and unfunded, she decided to give entrepreneurship a go and bring her invention to market.
