The best ideas often start with a problem
For Emily and Gemma, the problem was the same: too much time was spent searching for things to do with their children, and not enough time enjoying them.
Our
Story
London is full of incredible activities, but finding them means hours spent on google, scrolling social media and digging through WhatsApp groups.
Emily experienced this on maternity leave while looking for experiences she could enjoy with her daughter, from baby cinema screenings and postnatal fitness classes to sensory exhibitions and baby-friendly cafés.
Across town, Gemma was managing the next phase of the journey. Now a mum of two, her focus had moved from baby classes to juggling half-term camps, weekend days out, and afternoon clubs. Tired of acting as a Personal Assistant to her girls, she was building a tool that took the chore out of family scheduling.
Two mums. Two apps. One mission.
When they finally connected, the opportunity was obvious: combine their knowledge, technology and communities to create something better.
Today, Konker helps families discover, plan and enjoy the very best experiences around them through expert curation, personalised technology and seamless discovery.
Because parenting is hard enough already. Finding great things to do with your children shouldn't be.
