Launching a Remote, Asynchronous Venture Studio

Today I sit down with my friend Barry O'Reilly, who's a co-author of the bestselling book "Lean Enterprise" and author of "Unlearn: How to Let go of past success to achieve extraordinary results". He's also the host of the Unlearn podcast. He's also the co-founder of Nobody Studios, a global and asynchronous Venture Studio in the middle of raising a crowd-funding round (500K so far!) on Republic where anyone (including me!) can be part of their mission to fund 100 companies in five years. As part of my ongoing series about co-founder relationships, I wanted to bring Barry on to unpack how he and his co-founder connected and decided to make this project happen, how they cross-pollinate insights from venture to venture and how they use a platform-centric approach to create synergies among their portfolio companies. Along the way, we explore how Barry has learned to leverage serendipity and intentional connection to build his ideal life and lots of insights about how to run remote-first!
