Co-Founder, TechMode.io – Chelsea Larson-Andrews co-founded TechMode.io, an award-winning B2B influencer marketing agency that helps tech brands build programs and communities. She is recognised as a top 5G and Cloud influencer and uses her social platforms to connect with tech trendsetters.
A self-described tech nerd, Chelsea merged her passions for technology and marketing when she co-founded TechMode in 2016. The agency works exclusively with tech companies—from cloud services to 5G and IoT providers—helping them build influencer programs that translate complex products into compelling stories. Chelsea has cultivated large communities on Twitter and LinkedIn, engaging with developers, analysts and thought leaders, and she has been recognised on industry lists such as Onalytica’s 5G and Cloud Influencers. She believes B2B influencer marketing is about long-term relationships and deep domain expertise; as such, she often collaborates with engineers and product managers to craft authentic content. Outside of her agency, Chelsea mentors women in tech and speaks at conferences on digital transformation and tech-for-good initiatives.
