Entrepreneurship was inevitable for Aneeqa Khan, whose B2B brainchild has been dubbed “the Airbnb of interior design.” An e-commerce platform launched in 2015, the London-based Eporta links designers and makers with trade buyers around the globe. Khan, who gained early experience as head of strategy for the U.K.’s top property search website, has big plans for the brand—including expansion into the U.S. market.
I’ve grown up with a family that runs small businesses. Becoming an entrepreneur myself was always going to happen. I love design and am a big believer that well-designed spaces make people happy in the day-to-day. I also love anything that makes life more efficient. Building a business which powers great design around the world by making the process easier for people was the perfect fit.
