When Daniela Groza co-founded Auzi®, she set out to change how the world sees hearing aids. Inspired by her partner’s experience growing up with hearing loss, Daniela wanted to design jewellery that celebrates individuality and empowers people to feel confident wearing their hearing aids.

Auzi has built an engaged online community and reached millions organically on social media, proving that inclusive design can also be beautiful.
