Jessica Matthews is CEO and co-founder of Uncharted Play. Matthews grew up in New York and her parents ran a software business, Decision Technologies International. Matthew went to Harvard College in 2008. When she was a junior, she took a non-engineers engineering class. She received an assignment where she and a classmate, Julia Silverman, had to create a product that provided a social good. Matthews quickly recalled a time when she was 17. She was at a wedding and the power went out. This was not a big problem as the venue had a generator. However, The generator had fumes coming from it and they cause her to cough and get dizzy. She noticed that none of the other guest were having her problem because the power has gone out before and they were used to the fumes. Matthews wondered if there was a different way to store energy to power the lights that wouldn’t cause the fumes. During her school assignment she was able to explore this farther. Matthews and Silverman came up with Soccket. Soccket is a soccer ball that stores the kinetic energy that is created from kicking and playing with the ball. Soccket has a small internal generator that can be used to charge a cell phone or light up a room. After they created the ball, they launched a company called, Uncharted Play. After graduating from college in 2010, she took a full-time job but, one year later she left that company and worked full-time on Uncharted Power. The company also created jump ropes that can generate three hours of power for an LED light from just 15 minutes of jumping rope. Matthews shifted focus and made the trademark MORE. MORE stands for Motion-based Off-Grid Renewable Energy. This shift has allowed them to create product such as, floor panels, shopping carts, speedbumps, etc. In 2016, Uncharted Power was able to double their gross profit from the previous year.
