We Are the
Edge of Chaos
"The truly creative changes and the big shifts occur right at the edge of chaos”
Dr. Robert Bilder
We are the Edge of Chaos. For a lack of a better term, we define ourselves as an assembly – not an accelerator and not a VC firm. We do not invest in the future; we create it ourselves.
We are an assembly of passionate people, some with funds, some with wisdom, some with amazing skills, and all with a genuine “Edge of Chaos” mentality. We come together on an impossible mission to create paradigm-changing companies with groundbreaking ideas that will transform industries and improve the lives of millions.
Our name, the Edge of Chaos, is a manifestation of the core growth engine behind our brands and companies. The term “Edge of Chaos” has long been used to denote a transition space between order and disorder in nonlinear, complex and dynamic systems.
Where others dread this space and instead seek out conventional solutions that stunt growth, wither in the face of change, and perpetuate a fear of the unknown, we feel right at home.
We view uncharted waters as an opportunity, not a threat, and boldly go where no one has gone before, driven by our powerful conviction that progress is inevitable.
For us, ideas that are born at the Edge of Chaos offer flexible, unlimited growth that propels systems from all disciplines to undergo constant, steady, and sustainable development in the face of change.
Nestled at the heart of every company we create is a substantial leap-of -knowledge idea. Like driving a nail through tempered glass in just the right spot, this idea is destined to shatter conventional industry paradigms and impact the lives of millions.
