Our goal

We are company builders, designers, and strategists. We have experience as entrepreneurs, strategy consultants at Innosight and McKinsey, and corporate innovation leaders. Our team understands how to deploy the venture studio playbook within large organizations to drive strategic and financial impact — and we’ve helped the world’s most influential organizations move beyond innovation theater to achieve real results.

Our Values

We Build

We make decisions with imperfect information and quickly move forward; we take action. We are comfortable with discomfort, and measure our results in terms of what we build.

We are Bold

We seek, uncover, and speak truth. We dream big and we lead through vision. Our ideas change the world.

We Create Opportunity

We aim to create as much opportunity for as many people as possible, and believe startups are a powerful vehicle for doing that.
