Giving Voice to Vision

About us

FNDR works with founders, harnessing the power of narrative to give voice to your vision. We believe founder-led businesses have a unique opportunity to build a better future. Utilizing technology to improve the human condition, by creating solutions that wouldn't have otherwise existed. In a world saturated with noise and where change is the norm, narrative is your edge. Now more than ever, success and impact relies on a founder's ability to tell a distinct and compelling story. It's everything: it guides internal culture and external strategy. It attracts world class talent, scales advocacy, drives adoption and shapes your future. It's your anchor to the long-term, and the bridge to crossing that next chasm, because what got you here > won't get you there. Truly transformative stories come from culture. They stem from rare insights, ideas and a perspective of what's going on in the world today. This is where FNDR comes in. Our four partners are best-in-class storytellers, with decades of experience working alongside countless visionary founders at their most pivotal inflection points. Together with you at their centre, they form an alchemy: bringing to bear their deep understanding and horizontal perspective across categories, culture, story, strategy and entrepreneurship. We pull the genius out of you, break you out of what’s gone before, challenge assumptions and stimulate imaginative thinking. Liberating you to realise the boldness of your ideas.

    INNOVATION IS A PRACTICE (Not just one idea, one solution or the domain of an anointed individual). As Rebekah Jefferis shared on stage this weekend at #SXSW2024 Fast Company Grill Event, it’s time for NEW PLAYBOOK FOR INNOVATION. As we witness promethean leaps forward in human and artificial intelligence, converging with a new emerging generation entering the workplace for the first time, success ultimately lies with those who design their company culture around a daily innovation practice and use the power of story to lay those foundations and bring others with them.

    Congrats to Diego Saez Gil and the Pachama team on the re-launch of the Pachama brand! We loved working with the Pachama team last year to unlock their Narrative Strategy focused on facilitating a new relationship between Business and Nature. By "Making the Invisible, Visible", Pachama is allowing businesses to see their "Carbon in Action" and then act on it. Our work together came to life translated visually through a new visual ID and then in this compelling brand film from a great partner of ours, How&How how, Cat How and Rog How. So amazing to see this work come to life in such a powerful way! Cheers to Pachama and "The New Nature of Modern Business" ... business that is better for people and the planet!

    Congratulations to Anders Forslund and the Heart Aerospace team today on raising their Series B! We worked with Anders and the Heart Aerospace team two years ago for the momentous launch event of the ES 30 which unveiled their powerful 30 seater aircraft technology to partners, press and the world at large. Through this launch moment, Anders and his team were able to share their story and vision for the future of electric air travel, a future that is better for people and the planet and one that makes innovation a reality now! We're excited to see this recent investment as another significant step toward sustainable regional air travel! 🚀

    Exciting news today! The closing of our Series B represents another significant step toward sustainable regional air travel. Billions of people around the world are looking to be connected to this amazing infrastructure. The only way forward is to decouple the tremendous growth in aviation from its emissions, and we believe ES-30 is the first stepping stone. Than you for the support Sagitta Ventures, Air Canada, Breakthrough Energy Ventures, European Innovation Council Fund, EQT Ventures, Lowercarbon Capital, Norrsken VC, United Airlines, and Y Combinator. https://lnkd.in/dUUMEezz

    Why do you need Story before Strategy? Because while you can't predict the future, you can use Narrative to model it. It allows you to express your idealism so you don't fall short of your ambition. Just some of the takeaways from the intimate evening with Longchamp, Intelligent Change, and FNDR last week in London. Thank you to Clara LindhMaria Wlosinska for organising the event, Hector Cassegrain (MD Longchamp) for hosting and sharing their family’s story, and Alex Ikonn (Co-Founder Intelligent Change) another insightful speaker from the night.
