Coral Santoro chatted about being an entrepreneur and influencer in the digital age. She shared her thoughts on AI (artificial intelligence) on the future of the industry.
The digital age
On being a part of the digital age, Santoro shared, “We are at the beginning of a massive shift right now, where AI is the center of it all. It is becoming a tool, not only for developers, but for everyone.”
“Right now, being a part of this movement, has been great. That is why created our ecosystem for anyone to be able to use it starting with VYNFLUENCER, which is one of our unicorns right now,” she explained.
Santoro’s latest projects
Her recent projects integrate automation, content generation, and scalable business systems — all powered by AI. One standout initiative is VYNFLUENCER, an AI-driven platform that connects brands with creators and streamlines collaboration using intelligent matching and campaign analytics.
VYNFLUENCER is one of several ventures founded under Coral Santoro Ventures Inc., which also powers The VYN Global (focused on corporate education and business scale), Harlow Network (a curated creator and media network), and Current Business Review, a forward-thinking digital publication that covers global business trends.
“With VYN Global, I saw a gap in how companies were being trained to handle scale and adapt AI. We are giving leaders the tools that they need to navigate fast-chanigng markets by staying competitively globally,” she said.
Through this ecosystem, Coral is actively building the next generation of platforms where AI, media, and business intersect.
“VYNFLUENCER came from seeing how messy the influencer marketing can be, and we wanted to make those collaborations smarter, fairer, and more efficient by using AI for intelligence,” she said.
“Then, we created Harlow Network, which is about curating powerful voices and building a space where creators and brands can do more meaningful, authentic work together,” she elaborated.
Coral Santoro: A new face of female coding
Santoro has emerged as the new face of female coding as she leads with AI-first innovation.
According to Statista, the number of women in coding and AI roles continues to increase, signaling broader opportunities for inclusion in high-growth sectors.
A forward-thinking programmer, Santoro uses artificial intelligence to build real-world solutions in an effort to become one of the next key voices in tech.
“I think the opportunity today isn’t just about learning how to code,” she said. “It’s about understanding how AI changes the way we build, solve, and move faster — and using that to create value that lasts.”
Current Business Review
On creating Current Business Review, she said, “It was born basically from the idea that business media feels a bit outdated and we wanted to create fresher, sharper, and more pleasant with what was happening in the age of innovation.”
On being a trendsetter in this Internet age, she said, “It has been a whirlwind because I started 10 years ago. I called myself an ‘influencer’ but now I think I’m entering more into the entrepreneur side of being an influencer.”
“I think anyone who has something in any social media platform can call themselves an influencer, and I can be called an influencer for all my ventures right now,” she said.
Daily motivations
On her daily motivations, she said, “Honestly, what motivates me each day is God; that’s my grounding point. To be able to wake up each day and try to motivate everyone in this world to fulfill their dreams, and to chase anything they set their minds to because honestly, we all can.”
“Every day, I wake up with this motivation that God gave me to try to motivate others to be the best versions of themselves,” she noted.
AI on the future of industry
Santoro addressed AI on the future of the industry. “AI should not be scary at all. I think AI is going to help us all be better in our jobs, especially right now where we are at the beginning of this massive shift,” she said.
“The future of tech needs to be more diverse at the table. It should be scary, and it should representation from anyone who wants to get in. This innovation with AI will absolutely help anyone just to power up anything that they are doing in life,” she explained.
Advice for young and emerging entrepreneurs
For young and aspiring entrepreneurs, she encouraged them to “go for it.” “There is no excuse to not accomplish anything you want to set out to do,” she said.
“If you have a laptop and if you have Wi-Fi, you have so many tools to create anything that you aspire, and anything that you are motivated towards doing, especially in this era with AI and tech,” she noted.
“So, wake up every day, feel blessed that you are alive, get into your laptop and remember that money is not an issue. I started with a budget that was very limited; I had 1,000 to invest in my business, and I grew it into a five company ecosystem to help creators in the creator economy scale,” she elaborated.
Stage of her life
On the title of the current chapter of her life, she revealed, “What’s Next?”
“I think that is something we should all we look forward to,” she said. “If you are comfortable, you can always grow and expand in anything that you want to do in life.
Success
Regarding her definition of the word success, Santoro stated, “If you start doing something, it doesn’t matter what you do, and if you don’t quit, then you are already successful. If you don’t quit, you don’t lose.”
“If you keep going, and you are still on it, then you are already successful because you are a step closer to your dream,” Santoro concluded.
