My oldest, Zoe Lee, and her friend Annie Chen co-founded BEAM, a strategic design studio creating interventions at the intersection of human and living systems. BEAM is participating as a community member in NEW INC’s 11th cohort.
NEW INC is an incubator for people working at the intersection of art, design, and technology.
NEW INC’s program is dedicated to growing creative practitioners into creative entrepreneurs. NEW INC runs annually from September-August. Our professional development program builds proficiency in business fundamentals and cultivates leadership confidence. Our curriculum takes the form of multi-day intensives, workshops, panel discussions, coaching sessions, clinics and peer working groups.
Programs are taught by industry leaders, artists, activists and scholars who lead open conversations about the changing nature of culture, technology, and business. Exposure to experts, funders and leaders in art, design and technology helps our members shape their practices and safely experiment with new approaches. Through the program, members are free to explore, catalyze new ideas, and scale their practices while contributing to the NEW INC ecosystem.
Selected members also have the opportunity to present at NEW INC’s Demo Day, a showcase that puts members in front of a select audience of funders, creative directors, curators and industry leaders. Demo Day presenters participate in a rigorous program to craft a clear, unforgettable pitch.
