What SHEQONOMI is, who to ask, and the assets you may use. Every figure this site quotes lives on the impact page with the basis for it attached, because a number without its basis is not much use to anybody writing about us.

Boilerplate

The company, in a paragraph

Written to be pasted. Nothing in it is unsourced.

SHEQONOMI is a podcast platform for women and girls, built around a single idea — Listen · Learn · Earn. Members find shows by and for women, creators bring their own feeds and audiences to the platform, and the shop and gift range fund the work. The company’s listening app runs on iOS, Android, KaiOS, Jio and Cloud Phone, because a $20 handset is still a handset. The merchant of record is SHEQONOMI LIMITED, Doha, Qatar.

The company name and location are the ones on the account that takes payment — see the footer of any page on this site.
