Sacha Lazimi | Source | CEO at Yubo

Sacha Lazimi is the co-founder and CEO of Yubo, the live social discovery app for Gen Z. Yubo is venture-backed by leading social media industry investors, with more than $60 million raised since the company was founded in 2015.

Prior to Yubo, as an 18-year-old mathematics student at Paris Dauphine University, Sacha developed with friends a hyper-geolocated group-chat app that allowed people to interact with a new person each day. This app and other similar projects were the foundation for Yubo, a social media platform enabling young people to socialize and create friendships in the digital world the same way they would in real life.

Under Sacha's leadership, Yubo has acquired more than 60 million users across more than 140 countries, with its greatest concentration of users in the U.S., the United Kingdom, and France.
