The world is getting exponentially more complex.
And business problems are doing the same.
In response, businesses are seeking outsiders for fresh perspectives. But what if they aren’t hiring outside enough? What if generic market research and biased digital metrics could be replaced by radically fresh perspectives?
Theory Lab believes that neuroscience, philosophy, sociology, physiology, language, and self-expression are the secret weapons for creating industry breakthroughs and gaining competitive advantages. For venture capitalists and enterprise-level businesses, and innovation hubs, we assemble leading experts who bring diverse lenses to a single complication, disrupting the age-old thinking that doesn’t work for new-world challenges.

Broadly speaking, human action may not express who we are so much as where we think we are, and much of what we become in life—much joy and suffering—may depend on the sort of world we think this is.
