The DITTO Story

If you’re unfamiliar with Ditto, here are a few bits of trivia about the company and its CEO, in no particular order:

1) Ditto’s CEO is a woman, went to Memorial High School, was a well known athlete, two time academic all-American at Ball State, D-1 Academic Player of the Year her senior year, and had a brief stint in the WNBA.

2) Local girl picks Evansville for Ditto’s E-commerce fulfillment operations.

3) Ditto is a technology company building a proprietary virtual try-on for e-commerce and is also e-commerce retailer selling designer eye wear.

4) Ditto was victim and a survivor of troll litigation which was intended to take it out as a competitor. Ditto recently won that suit plus now has its own patents.

CEO Kate Doerksen (formerly Endress) will be flying in from California to join us and share the Ditto story with our Tech on Tap community.You will not want to miss this event.
