In Britta Riley’s own words, “Annoyed with the direction I
saw social media and tech taking, I made a pact with myself more than a decade
ago: "If you don't like it, fix it." That has led me to a career as a
technology designer. Whenever she poses herself the question: Why is this done
this way? She gets fascinating answers about the whole idea of innovation. She has
successfully built a world community that is involved in “Window Farming”. Her Windowfarms.org was named one of the top
100 businesses to watch in 2010 by Entrepreneur Magazine. Windowfarms
makes vertical hydroponic platforms for growing food in city windows along with
an online citizens web platform of over 16,000 community members worldwide.
