Currently, ProgSys is in the exploration phase.
Most recent PostHaven post: ProgSys Updates: Just the Campus, Bro.
Interests
- High school engagement and enrichment program (anchored in BCS).
- What is the right admissions system?
- What can be done with the campus to make the culture exceptional?
- Thoughts on “culture”?
- Content + culture brand.
- Living room livestream + merch.
- Content + culture brand.
- How to sync with media?
- How to fund grant fund? How to design automated “talent system”?
- Decentralized progress LMS? (i.e. Giga Projects)?
- How to plug in with:
- Venture capital.
- Venture fund is the easiest idea, but innovation labels / tech transfer could be interesting as well. TBD.
- Maybe some sort of balance sheet opco similar to EF?
- With grants, and… well, that’s the problem: who to run it? What else to execute on? It’s unclear. Maybe it’s whoever runs the LMS? And the non-profit is what holds the land and… non-profit donations to maintain that land / campus? Ultimately, the structure won’t matter too much. The people, culture, and substance are what count.

- A medium-strength conviction is that this thing, whatever it is, can be much more than a venture capital fund. If it’s just a venture capital fund, it might be the case that a lot of my work looking for different structures was in vain!
