At SecondMuse, we build resilient economies. Economies in which all people and communities are able to contribute, benefit, and when faced with hardship, recover quickly. We believe that economies are easily shaped and influenced in their infancy, so we start by supporting entrepreneurs and the ecosystems around them.

Over the last decade, we’ve partnered with cities, governments, and organizations that are also planning a future with limitless possibilities. We’re proud to say we’ve designed and implemented programs on all 7 continents with 600+ organizations such as NASA, The World Bank, Nike, Pivotal Ventures, USAID, The World Health Organization, and The Rockefeller Foundation.
