THE CO-FOUNDERS' STORY

bbfc55d88a7ffa00d8dd0711f86b5444.jfif

Laure & Yoon-Joo were both working for over 7 years in the impact field. When they met in 2019 in Paris, France, it turned out they made the same observation. 

 

  • On the one hand, there were many smart people willing to launch their impact startup. But they often lack the right idea/model to get started, thus ending up reinventing the wheel sometimes. 

​

  • On the other hand, there are many great social enteprises looking to scale their solution and impact, and are looking for people to replicate their social businesses elsewhere.

​

We decided to bridge the gap and connect these two stakeholders! And Snowball Effect was born :)

We are on a mission to MAKE REPLICATION MAINSTREAM.
Get in touch.
