Live on Cheddar News: Artifcts Platform to Preserve History and Your Memories

February 18, 2022
Ellen Goodwin, Co-Founder and Chief Solutions Officer of Artifcts, joined ChedHER on Friday, 18 February, to discuss how Artifcts is creating a platform to preserve the history of your belongings. She also shared her experience succeeding in male-dominated government and tech industries. ChedHER is a special program from Cheddar News that celebrates representation and inclusion in business with today’s leaders and shines a light on the women who are making strides in their industries.

"We're lucky to have outlets like ChedHER going out of the way to give female entrepreneurs across the spectrum of industries and background a platform," said Ellen. "Maybe I should have been more succint, but it was worth spending more time on the question of succeeding in a man's world than talking about what's in store for Artifcts in 2022."
Curious what the answer would have been? So very much!
"We're five-months young, learning a lot through our workshops with the AARP Innovation Lab's Accelerator Program, making inroads into the travel and sporting industries, along with family history, the arts, and antiques, and frankly having a lot of fun," said Ellen. Artifcts is preparing to announce its first advisory board, which notably includes a powerhouse female ... in tech. The board will support Articts as it expands in niche markets as well as implements the latest in machine learning and computer vision to bring information and more community options, non-invasively, to Artifcters worldwide.

What's New at Artifcts
Artifcts' Co-founders Proud to Contribute to New Book From NAIPC

When "friends" come calling, you show up! In this case, when the National Aging in Place Council (NAIPC) decided to publish a follow-on to its original book, "Aging In Place Conversations," focusing this time on "difficult" conversations, the co-founders of Artifcts got in line to contribute.

"Almost every conversation we have with a member of the community is difficult in one way or another. We at Artifcts are sitting at the intersection of all of life's transitions, into adulthood, parenthood, phases of careers, the exciting "golden years," and of course end of life and loss. Channeling our learnings to help others, that's another reward to the work we do," said Heather Nickerson, Co-founder and CEO of Artifcts.

The book includes contributions from nearly 30 authors with expertise and credentials spanning senior living, universal design and engineering, gerontology, real estate, finance, orthopedics, and beyond. The book launched at #1 on Amazon this weekend in four categories: Geriatrics, Nursing Home Care, Aging, Medical Conditions & Diseases, and Family Health. You can purchase your copy through Amazon.com by clicking either of the images below.

"Single-stop resources from trusted experts to point you in the right direction and make you feel less alone in emotionally and financially taxing scenarios are what we all want on our bookshelves. We're grateful to NAIPC, all the authors, and the other collaborators who brought this important work to life," said Ellen Goodwin, Co-founder of Artifcts.

Voice of America Features Artifcts, a Family Legacy Solution

"Always always answer the mail." When a subtle, easy to miss email titled, "Media Inquiry," popped up in the media inbox at Artifcts back in May, it nearly got skipped over. Junk email is pervasive and startup life is uniquely chaotic. But what was clear from a glance were the credentials of the journalist behind the email, veteran reporter Faiza Elmasry, and that of course of Voice of America (VOA), providing news and information in more than 40 languages to an estimated weekly audience of more than 326 million people.

As it turns out, after months of research into approaches to preserving family legacy, stories, and memories, Elmasry found that Artifcts emerged as a unique and powerful solution accessible to people worldwide to capture their histories and heritage. She wanted to learn more about the founding philosophy of the company, the founders themselves, and the means by which Artifcts helped its community members to unite the stories with the 'stuff.'

We're pleased to share with you today the Connects series video produced by VOA to celebrate the lives and legacies now so easily captured through Artifcts. Enjoy it now on VOA News.
