Hi, I’m Jaron Soh 蘇峻锐

I’m the Co-Founder & CEO of Voda, the LGBTQIA+ mental health app. Voda works with leading LGBTQIA+ psychotherapists to develop guided therapy programmes centred on the LGBTQIA+ lived experience. We’re on a mission to help our community lead better, thriving, and more fulfilled lives through inclusive mental health support.

Beyond creating accessible mental health tools, I am deeply committed to tackling the systemic challenges that affect LGBTQIA+ people worldwide. With homosexuality still illegal in over 65 countries, Voda also serves as a platform to advocate for LGBTQIA+ rights, gender equality, and marriage equality, engaging stakeholders across various sectors.

As a third-time founder, I have previously founded and scaled consumer and business-to-business startups, and have raised funding from notable venture capital firms and angel investors. My work has been featured in publications including Forbes, Vogue Business, Attitude, PinkNews and GAYTIMES.

My passion is for the intersection between design, impact and technology. I believe that technological innovation can be compassionate and intentional, creating meaningful change in our lives.

Craft and design are also big passions of mine, and in my past work, I’ve had the privilege of designing Objects in collaboration with artisans in Afghanistan, Kenya, and Syrian and Palestinian refugees in Lebanon that reflect our shared humanity.

You can also connect with me on Twitter, LinkedIn, and TopLink.
