How Amy Briggs Built a Tech Company from Scratch
About this event
Ever wonder what it actually takes to go from idea on the couch to a launched tech product — with zero coding background?
Meet Amy, founder of Aviva and speech language pathologist turned tech entrepreneur. After years of working with families and watching the mental load crush modern parents (especially moms), Amy asked a question that changed everything: why isn't technology doing more of this work for us?
She took that question — and no technical experience — to 1871, Chicago's top tech incubator, and built her way from idea to MVP to a fully launched product.
In this fireside chat, you'll learn:
How Amy went from speech pathologist to non-technical founder and built a consumer AI product from scratchWhat it actually looked like to validate an idea, find a technical partner, and get to launchHow she's navigating the "wild wild west" of pricing and building an AI-powered SaaS productWhy the McKinsey data on household labor division became her founding spark
About Amy

A speech language pathologist by trade, she transitioned from private practice to the tech world through 1871's programming for female-identifying tech entrepreneurs. Aviva launched in October 2025.
