Francis Davidson biography

While a university student in Montreal, Sonder’s co-founder and CEO Francis Davidson managed a handful of apartments and began to envision a new set of ideals for hospitality. Over the next few summers, he experimented with matching travelers to vacant student apartments across cities and managing other people’s apartments for short-term rentals. A few years later, he and co-founder Martin Picard solidified the foundation that would become Sonder today. Sonder is now a global hospitality provider that has served more than 1M guests.
