Leonardo da Vinci was a man of many interests. Some of these included invention, painting, mathematics and geology. The Renaissance period was a breeding ground for creative, diverse thoughts and experiences, and da Vinci was a man who explored differences in ideas and cultures. This philosophy is what Soren Trampedach, Founder and Chairman of Work Club Global, wanted to introduce to the working world.
“I have a diversity philosophy, which essentially came from da Vinci. The disruption we see in all industries today is creating a lot of questions,” he says. “And where better to find answers to some of those questions and broaden your perspective than by stepping out of your little industry, network or tribe? The core idea behind Work Club Global was to represent many different kinds of industries.”
Work Club Global is a collection of boutique office spaces for the modern professional that Soren founded in 2013. “Back then, everyone thought I was crazy,” he says. “I was financing the whole thing myself, and it wasn’t as common as it is today.”
