PSU.EDU - Mary Richardson, a student at Penn State York, collaborated with Brandon Teller to launch Bindr, a dating app prioritizing inclusivity for the LGBTQIA+ community. Driven by personal experiences of discrimination on other platforms, Richardson envisioned a "label-free" app. In just a year, Bindr amassed ~25K users, aided by resources like York LaunchBox. The duo have won multiple pitch competitions, securing funds for Bindr's development. Richardson has been nominated for the 2023 Women in Technology Award. The success of Bindr is partly attributed to the support from Penn State York and its various resources.
