We believe that brands are the best teachers in the world, they just need the right curriculum to teach their consumers about their values.
Backed by a vibrant network of venture capitalists, angel investors, and industry innovators, we are dedicated to empowering brands globally through the strength of community and immersive, interactive experiences.
For over a decade, we’ve brought together thousands of individuals nationwide to connect, inspire, and collaborate through our signature events, Catalyst and CreativWeeks.
Building on this legacy, we’re now leveraging our network, resources, and expertise to help brands craft engaging and impactful experiences that resonate deeply with their audiences.
WHERE WE CAME FROM
350 Million Dollars and 2000 Leaders: In 2012, Amanda Slavin and Tony Hsieh joined forces to create more than 25 experiences that brought over 2000 entrepreneurs, thought-leaders and creatives to Downtown Vegas as a part of the 350 Million Dollar Revitalization Project, giving free talks to the public, using Amanda’s proprietary framework and best-selling book, (The Seventh Level) as the secret sauce for connection.
Ripple of Impact: This snowballed into an agency, CatalystCreativ that used the same framework to help brands like Google, The Raiders, NPR, and many more deeply engage their customers in the same meaningful way. From creating a learning series for the largest inner city music festival in the world, to transitioning an NFL team to Downtown Vegas, to launching Cannes Lion award winning digital campaigns, CatalystCreativ impacted millions of lives always with the intention to build community with intention, creating a positive ROI (Ripple of Impact).
Teaching people how to fish: We then decided to teach thousands of people our secret sauce for community building (The Seventh Level) with our learning platform, CatalystU. Why sell fish when we can teach people how to fish?
