60,000 Rebonds

What 60,000 Rebonds does

60,000 Rebonds (association loi 1901) is a French non-profit founded in 2012 by Philippe Rambaud following his own experience of business liquidation. The organization provides free accompaniment to entrepreneurs who have lost their business, addressing the personal, professional, and financial trauma that follows entrepreneurial failure. Its primary beneficiaries are individuals within 24 months of liquidation judiciaire or activity cessation, supported by a secondary audience of independent professionals and a tertiary base of corporate partners seeking CSR/RSE engagement opportunities.

The core service offering is structured around four pillars delivered free of charge: individual coaching (seven 1h30 sessions with a state-certified professional coach), godparenting/mentoring by active or retired business leaders for up to 24 months, monthly group meetings (Réunions Mensuelles), and thematic workshops plus co-development groups (GED) covering banking, insurance, and CV-writing topics. Operations are coordinated through a national federation headquartered in Lyon (SIRET 79081096400037, NAF 9499Z) and 11 semi-autonomous regional associations, supported by 2,386 volunteers (coaches, godparents, experts, ambassadors) and approximately 6 paid staff. Distribution is physical-first via 80+ local antennas across metropolitan France, Antilles-Guyane, and La Réunion, supplemented by a WordPress website, LinkedIn (primary social channel with regional sub-pages), YouTube, and HelloAsso for donations. The technology stack is non-proprietary; there is no API, SDK, or proprietary platform.

Revenue is generated through three streams: corporate mécénat (eligible for the 60% French mécénat tax reduction under rescrit fiscal), institutional grants (Ministère du Travail, BPI France, European Social Fund+, regional councils, Eurométropole de Strasbourg, DRIEETS), and a nominal €30 annual participation fee per entrepreneur. The combined 2025 budget (Fédération and territorial associations) is €2M, with a real cost per entrepreneur of approximately €2,000 (against an estimated hidden volunteer-hours cost of €33,000), yielding a claimed social ROI of €39 of economic value per €1 donated. The association is a member of the Cap Crea collective (created October 2022) and Portail Du Rebond.
