Wednesday, 10 December, 2025
On today’s episode, Kara welcomes Charles Brun, Co-Founder of IZIPIZI — the globally loved eyewear brand bringing playful, design-forward glasses to people of all ages around the world.Charles’ journey began with two high school friends and a simple observation: their mothers couldn’t find reading glasses that were both stylish and affordable. What started as a small idea among three 23‑year‑olds from Lyon has become a worldwide brand known for its joyful aesthetic, accessible price point, and commitment to quality. From Parisian concept stores to international expansion, IZIPIZI has grown into a category-defining company with glasses for every moment of life.In this episode, Charles shares how he and his co-founders turned a childhood friendship into a thriving business, how they cracked the eyewear market without traditional optical backgrounds, and what it takes to scale thoughtfully while staying true to design and mission.
