What do you do when you move to a new place and are looking for YOUR people? Brigitte London and Jenny Kozena are the masterminds behind IntroOnly, a digital platform with curated IRL events. The Czech sisters combined Brigitte's engineering background from Uber with Jenny's background as an interior designer to create this curated community hub 2 years ago as a way to solve the problem new people in new cities looking to connect with others who are far away from home. This was especially pertinent for this sisters who have moved dozens of times all over the world, having to start their friend group from scratch each time.
The app and events persevered through the pandemic and has provided hundreds of international and local people alike with unforgettable experiences such as goat yoga, Swedish Midsummer, and a 5 star Friendsgiving. Soon it will help other communities host their events on the app's platform as well.
In this episode, Brigitte and Jenny talk about how they created this international community from their personal pain points of moving to new places, how small moments of connection can lead to huge snowball effects, how to curate a cohesive intentional community that has a feeling of exclusivity while remaining inclusive, and how they are bridging the digital and in-person community landscape with IntroOnly.
