Quotabelle
Quotabelle creates smart, distinctive products designed to introduce more female role models to the world; from family rooms to classrooms, offices to boardrooms, studios to sports fields, in print and online. This female-powered startup is solving a quote supply problem uncovered through research...that less than 15% of quotes shared every day are by women and girls. Most quotations are unsourced; many are misattributed. Often, words shared have been written or said by the same visible few. The solution? Quotabelle´s creative storytellers use carefully sourced quotations as entrées to discovering true stories. Quotabelle is adding missing voices back into history and ensuring today´s remarkable women and girls aren´t overlooked going forward. They have published two anthologies of female wisdom: Beautifully Said and Grit & Grace.
