Angels + Strategic Investors
I'm building my personal Tikkun Olam with CultureRoot - a documentary studio that seeks to mitigate the growing loneliness epidemic, the crisis of community, the rise of GenAI content in the non-fiction space, and the doom+gloom around AI taking jobs. We're doing this by showcasing stories about people who found purpose in passion and built community along the way. We're focused on creating episodic series about some of the global subcultures I find fascinating like regenerative agriculture, street art + graffiti, and remote work + lifestyle design. The idea is to open windows into often overlooked communities with our content, and then over time, turn those windows into doors through in-person events, education, and pathways to real roles within these communities.
My Co-Founder / Head of Production is another MOT that worked as a producer for all 3 of Anthony Bourdain's series' for over 10 years.
We're just getting going, but we raised first capital the month after we incorporated and promptly flew to LatAm where we shot 13 episodes in 30 days. Those episodes are now in post-production, but we are launching our YouTube channel with our first episodes in the coming days. We are pre-revenue, but have a comprehensive strategy to make this a viable business in the months ahead.
Seeking angels, strategic investors, and brand partners to help us get the capital we need to build audience and get the revenue wheels turning. Minimum check size is $25k and you can read more on our investor site here: https://cultureroot.tv/investors
Would be grateful for any feedback, intros or conversations with those interested!
