We’re on the verge of an entrepreneurial explosion, where anyone from anywhere will have the ability to build and invest in meaningful companies that change the world.
Supporting this movement is a personal mission of mine, and really what Nobody Studios is all about.
That mission to create access for all and democratize entrepreneurship has been a lightning rod for me to find and connect with some amazing people.
Here's a look at some of the amazing stuff that's happened in the past month.
What I've been reading...
We just launched a new company called?Ovationz—the virtual event talent marketplace, with?Ray Leonard Jr.?as CEO.?
Ray is an entrepreneur, media mogul, former athlete, sports agent, and motivational speaker. He’s also the son of legendary boxer Sugar Ray Leonard.
The pandemic wiped out his speaking work, and he (like all Nobodies) has been underwhelmed by the virtual experiences businesses have tried to create since that moment. We all said, “We need to fix this!”?
Ovationz will be the premiere resource for event producers and talent who want to WOW their audiences and inspire an ovation every time!
We’re super excited about this launch and having Ray on board, and it’s just the beginning.

After the pandemic first hit, many organizations scrambled to stay functional, adopting technologies and implementing processes that would help them shift to remote working overnight, all for the sake of business continuity.
Some say it led to the "Great Resignation," while others say it sparked innovation. There are many questions about the future of work...
