Being creative in the Hub


Ambience matters. We just finished our second f2f workshop, this time in a cool incubator space downtown London. Ian and his team build a new makers movement platform out of here, and the buzz and energy of 200 people of 50 startups in one huge space certainly inspired. Worlds apart from my normal “office” space one could say.



Two intense days, working with David who help us design the device. Two ideas graduated to the final, both very cool. Can’t wait to see them in 3D. Maybe we can mold first batch here instead of china. Also playing around with some ideas for name: Domo and Multo. Domo is inspired from Japanese, Multo from Italian/Roman. Values intended to be open, flexible with endless opportunities… but also just simple, easy names. Need to test it out and let them mature a bit.

Anyway, fired up and ready to go now! Next 6 weeks will be finalising v1 offering – device design, sensor packs and app UX. Build focus groups and prepare late summer launch on Kickstarter + retail in Norway. Now back to fresh snow in Sixt!
