WorldFlourish Studios
We are a venture studio that accelerates ideas, projects and enterprises who are pioneering solutions to tackle the world's most pressing challenges in service of global flourishing.
THESIS
We feel a sense of urgency.
In a world facing a multitude of interconnected and cascading crises, it’s imperative to examine what’s driving us and take action guided by truth, beauty and goodness.
Artists, scientists, and philosophers all hold pivotal roles in reshaping our perspectives, making sense of our world, and encouraging us to embrace new ways of thinking. They serve as guides, opening doors to profound truths and casting light on the beauty, wonder, and awe necessary to steer humanity towards a more positive trajectory. When we seamlessly infuse these creative perspectives into the endeavors of purpose-driven innovators and entrepreneurs, something truly extraordinary emerges.
ABOUT
WorldFlourish is a collaborative haven for creativity and innovation
We equip interdisciplinary maestros to strengthen and drive their initiatives and enterprises to fruition. We operate with two primary creation modes:
Science & Art Initiatives
We believe it’s a generative drive to create that lies at the heart of human flourishing.
As a studio dedicated to global flourishing, we therefore team up with visionary artists and scientists to boost their projects so that the perspective changing power of the arts and science can be experienced at a grass-roots level.
Through our direct collaboration, we energize through mental fitness training, flow coaching, personal brand development, audience development, corporate partnerships and marketing.
Most importantly, we provide practical training and mentoring from our studio partners and venture advisors to help artists and academics grow their entrepreneurial skills so they develop and sustain flourishing entreprenuerial enterprises.
Studio-Built Enterprises
Guided by a team of values led founders, practitioners and experts, and in partnership with our resident artists and scientists, our studio seeks to launch innovative enterprises in service of global flourishing.
We take a multidisciplinary approach and when we identify a problem area that aligns with our criteria, we proceed with design, prototyping, and early market testing to validate our concepts.
Our current focus areas include:
The Loneliness Crisis - Nurturing a sense of belonging, connection, and community is not just essential for individual well-being but also for the overall health of our communities and societies
Creativity & Collaboration - By empowering creators, innovators, and teams, we aim to unleash the transformative potential of human ingenuity
Emotional, Physical & Mental Health - We envision a future where individuals have easy access to comprehensive, personalized solutions for their holistic health needs
Parenthood - We believe that when parents flourish, they can raise the next generation with confidence, compassion, and resilience, contributing to a better future for all.
OUR PROCESS
How we work
As former founders and entrepreneurs ourselves, we understand how challenging it is for an early-stage project or venture to have all the necessary skills in-house, which is why we've built a suite of hard-to-hire, world-class humans that are absolutely foundational to our ability to help you flourish. We follow a simple process:
Step 1: Ideation
We scope areas where massive problems are yet to be solved. Thanks to a community of experts and a tested ideation process we explore the most promising ideas in Global Flourishing.
Step 2: Incubation
We then run a 4-month Creative Entrepreneur in Residence Program where we focus on all aspects of flourishing from the individual to enterprise or project to meaningful social impact.
Step 3: Launch
We then ensure you launch your project or enterprise, while remaining a minority shareholder. FlourishWorld supports artists and startups at every steps of the way from fundraising, hiring talents, networking, to business development.
