  • From Uncertainty to Serendipity

    People fear entrepreneurship, because of the uncertainty:

    "how do I know if my idea is going to work??"

     

     

    That's why we created PROTO!

  • From Uncertainty to Serendipity

    People fear innovation & entrepreneurship because of uncertainty: how do you know if you're going to succeed or fail? PROTO simulates the chaos of the creative process in a fun way: the randomness of the cards, the roll of the dice, or the surprise attacks from other players.

     

    So much is out of your hands, but what is always within your control are your skills:

    • strategy
    • storytelling and
    • creativity.

    It is these core skills that PROTO aims to cultivate. The game gives an opportunity to practice building an idea into a business, pitching to others, and imagine possibilities from every card.

     

    PROTO actually inspires players to transform uncertainty into opportunity.
