Founder, The Bold Co

Mandy Chan

The Bold Co begins its history as a Kickstarter project that raised over $100k to become a successful multi-million dollar business. 24-year-old Mandy Chan built her brand from scratch and flew to China alone to find factories and suppliers to create her very first prototype. Today, the brand brings innovation to sports and travel gear, specializing in providing practicality to everyday life. In addition, she has snagged the SOE awards and envisions her brand collaborating with Tobyato and Lovage in the coming future.

According to Mandy, the key takeaway from her experiences is to be bold in your choices and resilience to move forward despite your failures.
