...is an ideas lab.

Nikita Petrov (Psychopolitica, Nonzero, The Glenn Show) and Boris Shoshitaishvili (Berggruen, Our Planetary Mirror) host a public livestream every couple of weeks, sometimes with a call-in segment. The conversation is informal and usually wide-ranging. The goal is to articulate ideas we're each thinking about, see how they interact and change each other, and what new ones emerge. You can find the recordings in [PODCAST].

The most interesting ideas get catalogued, described, and developed further in [IDEAS].

Taken together, they constitute a worldview. We're starting to sketch it out in [MANIFESTO].

You can send us a note or schedule a one-on-one call with Nikita in [CONTACT].
