How Entrepreneur Jane Chen Is Literally Saving Babies' Lives
When she was in her 20s, Jane Chen read an article in The New York Times that changed her life. "I decided in that moment that I want to use the opportunities I have been given to help others," she said. Her moment grew into a movement. Chen is the CEO and founder of Embrace, a social enterprise startup that makes low-cost incubators that save the lives of preterm babies in the developing world. More recently, the Bay Area entrepreneur launched another venture, called Little Lotus Baby, which makes swaddles, sleep sacks, and blankets using NASA-inspired technology. Little Lotus products keep babies at an ideal temperature so they sleep better, and the company uses a "TOMS-inspired model" for giving, says Chen. "For each Little Lotus sold, we help to save a baby in a developing country with the Embrace warmer."
The Embrace incubator has garnered accolades and support from the likes of President Obama and Beyoncé, while Chen, an avid surfer, keeps finding ways to balance her various passions in life. In our Power Your Happy Q&A, she tells us about how she got here and how she keeps going.
