WHAT COMES NEXT
Future businesses, built from real problems.
A home for the ideas, experiments and practical ventures Mike Vickers is developing at the intersection of industry, digital execution and changing markets.
THE THESIS
Build where experience reveals friction.
Mike’s future ventures will begin the same way his strongest work has: by paying attention to problems that people in the field, in business and online deal with every day.
This page will evolve as new ideas move from observation to validation, and from early experiments into useful, durable businesses.
