Side Hustles

Progress Report

We provide nontraditional business intelligence with matching action steps to help leaders take action at work — change their business, and grow their teams.

+ Pool

We are working with Friends of + Pool, an inspired project to build the world’s first floating, filtering swimming pool to NYC.

NYC Mayor’s Creative Council

As a member of the NYC Mayor’s Creative Council, we are working to more effectively connect New Yorkers to information, resources and initiatives.

Critical Nonsense

On our weekly podcast we dig deep into cultural ephemera to inspire interesting conversations with strangers at brunch and their even stranger friends.

Master & Dynamic

We loved the headphones so much we invested in and partnered with M&D to help build their business, brand, and product strategy.

The Dots

Written by Sylvain Labs, The Dots is a book that deconstructs the role of influence for brands and institutions in the modern age.

Some Kind of Quest

We made a documentary about Northlandz, a 52,000-foot model train installation just 75 minutes outside Manhattan.

Lilo

Because we can’t get enough of Açai bowls (seriously, check them out), we invested in Lilo, “a superfood company that believes feeling good starts with eating good.”

Team

Hard on the work, kind to each other. Invested in individuals, committed to collective intelligence. Play is work is play. If it sounds like you, please get in touch.
