[rephrase] Explanation: I'd certainly avoid any direct rendering here (e.g. "as initiator") either: - In 2005 she realized her idea of creating/founding XX ... or: - Her foundation/inception of XX in 2005 saw the realization of her idea for a platform providing ... - Her foundation of XX in 2005 saw her bring to life her idea for a platform providing ... - In 2005 she founded XX, thereby realizing her idea of a platform ... - 2005 saw her realize ... (but there are alternatives to "realize" and "idea") |
