— Andy


Product

  • “Circular Economy” is the newest corporate buzzword. However, for us to really achieve ‘sustainability’, we need new materials to reduce plastic pollution and harmful emissions. Modern Synthesis, a startup dedicated to creating regenerative materials, received $4m in seed funding to develop their Microbial Weaving technique ↓

  • In the world of cell phones it’s hard to imagine anyone toppling Apple, but if anyone is going to do it, it will be a disruptive startup with a culture shifting product. Can Carl Pei’s Nothing capitalize on the lack of innovation in each new smartphone update?

  • Delta and Amex collaborated to produce a commemorative Boeing 747 edition Reserve credit card. Going beyond a simple nod to the icon, it’s manufactured using repurposed aluminum from Delta’s last 747. The insight came from a focus group; a consumer suggested that they should make a card out of and airplane and the idea stuck.

People

  • Managing up can feel awkward or even desperate. Done well, however, it will make you and your manager’s performance significantly better.

  • Florian Gemmrich is a strong yet (refreshingly) quiet influence in the sports and fashion industry. Over the past 15 years I’ve seen him create and cultivate what we now call “Trend Marketing”. Look back on his timeline, you’ll see the “things” before they were “the thing”.

  • Real productivity advice. Do the work.

Process

  • “All truly great thoughts are conceived by walking.” The Link Between Great Thinking and Obsessive Walking.

  • If you’re struggling to return to your personal best try these science backed methods. This market can be leave you demotivated and fatigued; don’t let it affect your health and fitness.

  • Everything is moving so fast out there. What if we’re just getting started? Compounding rules everything around us.
