On April 16, 2013, a professional speaking profile of Jessica O. Matthews was published, describing her as the inventor of the Soccket at age 19 and as the founder of a company focused on renewable-energy products. This profile was part of a growing circuit of speaking engagements, conferences, and university visits where Matthews shared her story as a young inventor and entrepreneur.
By this point in her career, Matthews had become a sought-after speaker on innovation, entrepreneurship, and STEM education, frequently invited to address audiences ranging from students to corporate leaders.
