About this listen

Just days ago, Sophia Kianni’s name was flashing in headlines again as one of the most influential young voices on climate action, but she’s also been making waves well beyond her activist roots. The biggest story right now is about Sophia’s newest venture as a fashion tech entrepreneur. Multiple sources including Luxury Launches have detailed how Sophia co-founded the high-profile platform Phia with Phoebe Gates, Bill Gates’ daughter. The duo’s start-up, promising to “disrupt the intersection of sustainability and style,” hit a major milestone recently by securing an impressive eight million dollars in funding, as confirmed by Traders Union’s latest coverage. This rapid fundraising round underscores the faith investors place in Sophia’s vision and the expectations for Phia to shape the future of eco-conscious fashion.

Hot off the press, Sophia has been spotted collaborating and appearing publicly more than ever. People Magazine and AOL both report her teaming up again with Phoebe Gates and Tay Nakamoto for a fun new podcast episode, “Sticking With Style,” recorded in partnership with Command Brand. The buzz around this session isn’t just for Sophia’s trademark climate messaging—it’s the kind of savvy branding move that’s helped her cross over from activist circles to mainstream pop culture. Social media chatter picked up when behind-the-scenes moments from this recording, including Sophia’s offbeat college shenanigans, were shared by her co-hosts, furthering her image as that rare combination of passionate advocate and relatable rising star. According to AOL, Phoebe Gates even shared a humorous story about Sophia during their Stanford days, calling her “the best kind of unpredictable roommate.”

Business Insider and more mainstream outlets are highlighting posts where Sophia is increasingly being called an influencer to watch in the worlds of tech and sustainable fashion. Her Instagram and Twitter feeds have kept up a steady stream of posts about Phia’s mission, peppered with signature photos, big smiles, and an unmistakable message: meaningful impact can be stylish too.

There have been no negative reports or controversies—just a steady climb of expanded roles and higher visibility. Sources close to Sophia suggest she’s planning a series of campus and conference appearances for the winter season, focusing on Gen Z entrepreneurship and climate innovation, though those details are not yet officially confirmed.
