We’re a rare breed of startup that might be mistaken for a corporate fixture. Peppered with sculptures in shades of bronze and plants so vibrant they seem Photoshopped into existence, our Beverly Hills office doesn’t quite fit the stereotype of the sleepless computerized warehouse.
But that’s how—and why—we work.
Curious Minds shuttles with ease between snappy casual and serious outfit. We’re young hypnotic hipsters who rub elbows with celebrities, but we also have a penchant for practicality. Our histories range from stuffily schooled to self-educated, homegrown to frequent flier, modeling to model-making to money-making models.
What we all have in common is our instinctual hunger for adventure. We’re always on the hunt for the next big thing. Some call it foresight. We chalk it up to an uncanny talent for finding the right ideas and, more importantly, the right people.
We consider our employees not so much as investments as an extended family. Together, we frequent the opera and the outdoor ice rink that annually blesses sunny southern California with its presence. We exchange dishes at restaurants, hop through bars, and conduct the occasional companywide contest to see who will nab the last poppy seed bagel with lox cream cheese. In fact, it’s precisely because colleague camaraderie stimulates our communication faculties that we’ve been able to create communication technologies that continue to succeed.
