The Firework is an emerging social network that connects users based on their values and personality traits. It's not about dating, but about all areas of life. Our top target group for market entry in Germany is High Potentials.
We have worked with over 100 experts, including 14 psychologists, and renowned experts such as Prof. Hans-Peter Erb, a leading figure in social psychology, and Jochen Emig, a Top 40 Global Machine Learning Expert at Google. We have conducted over 1000 interviews, including 30 customer interviews, and analyzed 28 personality tests/value models, resulting in our first prototype.
Our goal is to build the world's best matching algorithm using AI, providing each person with their ideal environment to unleash their full potential.
