Saksia Teufel, founder of 8pm, guest at PITCH & PEOPLE — 8pm social instead of doomscrolling: Social media is addictive – not only studies and a U.S. court ruling demonstrate this, but also the everyday experience of many users. In the videocast Pitch & People, we spoke with Saskia Teufel, founder of 8pm, about why current platforms are designed to do exactly that and how her startup is taking a radically different approach to counter it.

Localee makes you an insider in your city: You search, scroll, ask around – and in the end you’re still unsure. That’s exactly where Localee comes in. The app wants to end arbitrary ratings and take you to where it’s really good: to genuine recommendations from your network. Munich Startup spoke with Dominic Preiß, CEO and co-founder of Localee.
