Featured VentureMom – Stephanie Korey and Jen Rubio
In the bustling world of travel, one name has become synonymous with sleek design, durability, and functionality: Away. Since its inception, Away has captured the hearts of globetrotters and casual travelers alike with its stylish suitcases that blend form and function seamlessly. But behind every successful brand lies a story of vision, dedication, and the people who breathe life into it. Let’s delve into the narrative behind the owners of Away Suitcases and uncover the journey that has made them a household name in the world of travel.
Away was founded in 2015 by two visionary entrepreneurs, Stephanie Korey and Jen Rubio. These two women shared a passion for travel and dissatisfaction with the luggage industry’s status quo, which they found to be outdated and uninspiring. Drawing from their experiences working at Warby Parker and Casper, two disruptors in their respective industries, Korey and Rubio set out to revolutionize the luggage market with a fresh perspective and a commitment to quality.
Central to Away’s success is its dedication to innovation and design excellence. Korey and Rubio’s approach was simple yet profound: create a suitcase that not only looks good but also performs exceptionally well. They collaborated with top engineers and designers to develop a range of suitcases that prioritize durability, functionality, and style. From the signature ejectable battery to the TSA-approved lock system, every feature of an Away suitcase is meticulously crafted to enhance the traveler’s experience.
