We are committing to a game that is purposeful, well equipped, and fueled by human ingenuity.

Central to our approach are Sparks, Techné, and LightNet.

Sparks: catalyzing ~B ENDEAVORS

By focusing on healthier approaches for industry sectors, we affect underpinnings for large parts of the economy. We have begun assisting hedge “fund of fund” managers and pacesetters creating ecommerce marketplaces. We are partnering with people running food banks, time banks, and agriculture centers. The bigger the field and the more likely it is to transform economies, the better.

This produces virtuous feedback loops and non-linear returns from modest investments. Monetary systems, public education, science and research, health and wellbeing, food services and housing are in our sights for partnering, scaling, and leveling up.

We are testing an approach whereby entrepreneurs can innovate in a nurturing community, then easily create open blueprints to spread and iterate their ideas with people interested in doing complementary work.

Lightnet: the underlying interconnectivity

We are building both physical and virtual networks of trust.
Face to face gatherings, meet-ups, conferences, retreats, potlucks, exhibitions, and parties: together people have fun and share experiences.
Simultaneously, a digital infrastructure, with a rich reputation architecture, increases the likelihood of success at every scale.
In tandem, we greatly reduce the costs of scaling, help people find one another, and encourage diverse perspectives to flourish in modern ways.


TECHNÉ: IDEAS + Methods TO NOURISH OUR EVOLUTION

We are studying, theorizing, and testing approaches that deal with systemic concerns so solutions have a greater likelihood of success.

Wellbeing Science
What do people actually need and how do we meet those needs? How do we move from full to fulfilled?
Immanent Effectiveness
How do we enable grand productivity and new levels of innovation to emerge from fluid and bottom-up organizational models?
Collective Intelligence
How can emerging systems allow people to focus their attention on what is most meaningful to them so they can contribute their knowledge for the greater good?
Community Building
How do we go about forging trust networks in places as diverse as mega cities and virtual project teams spanning cultures and continents?
Abundance Economics
How do we allocate human, physical, and intellectual resources when the laws of supply and demand no longer apply? How do we foster and distribute innovation to benefit from this new frontier?

Why is this called Game B?
