    Aged 28, George Fairhall, founder and chief executive of WAC, is a tech superstar.

    WAC is a work/life and money management app. The app is designed for workers who are paid by the hour, whether on a zero-hours or a regular contract.

    George Fairhall started WAC in January 2019 with a £5,000 wedding gift from her parents, and in July 2021 the company raised £70,000 to develop the product further.
