Events

We create custom-tailored events and experiences for mission-aligned companies looking to build community, from conceiving and organizing an eccentric exhibition with the Italian architect and designer Paola Navone during Milan Design Week, to moderating a live talk on neuroaesthetics with Google’s Ivy Ross at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, to hosting an intimate dinner with Grand Seiko during Art Basel Miami Beach.
