SOUTHFIELD – Diva Tech Talk was thrilled to interview Fashion Tech trailblazer Jing Zhou, a poster child for entrepreneurship.  Jing was born in The People’s Republic of China, and immigrated to the United States when she was in her early 20’s. “Technology, alone, cannot change the world,” according to Jing. “It is the application of technology that will do that.” Jing runs her own company: elemoon. They invented the first consumer-ready flexible computer. It adds substantial technology and style to the existing wearables and the Internet of Things. The first application is a computer-powered jewelry line.

Jing’s early experiences have distinctly shaped the innovation in which she is involved today.  Having been born in the early ‘80’s in socialist China, Jing said: “The society was quite limiting in terms of what you could do, and what you could buy. But I would argue that, as a girl, it was the best place to be because the society really focused on gender equality.”
