ABOUT US
More than a what, we all need a why. This is ours.
Our Manifesto
We live in challenging times,
and we certainly all want change .
But what really matters for us is:
WHO WANTS TO CHANGE .
We potentially already have enough ideas to transition towards a more sustainable and fair future.
So this is what we question:
what needs to take action?
Changing is hard, but there's hope!
We believe that stories will foster the adoption of new behaviours .
​
​
At Garage Stories we want to activate collective change and effectively build a better future.
Creators
The rebels with a cause.
Insanely talented content creators, technologists, architects, designers, gamers, writers, artists, marketing experts, futurists, etc.
Do you sometimes struggle to find funding? Distribution? Or how to market your creations?
Companies
Our sidekicks.
Ethic brands that understand that companies need a profit, but also for a purpose, and that ultimately, this is the only way to connect with audiences.
You need authentic and honest content.
Investors
Our partners in crime.
Whose investments in startups that strive to build a better world with their products and services, would highly benefit from more sensitive audiences ready to embrace change.
What would happen if a percentage of their investment portfolio was dedicated to relevant content? Could that make their startups most successful?
Why emerging media?
What value adds technology to storytelling?
What power do interactive and
immersive stories have?
classic forms of art
and storytelling
are static and only allow audiences to interpret the message from the artist
2017
Garage Stories was born in the garage of Hacker House in downtown Palo Alto, Silicon Valley; with the mission to gather the best creatives and technologists around the globe to play, design, and prototype innovative projects with emerging media to foster positive impact.
​
The first lab took place on June 2017, where we brough together 20 professionals from companies such as Apple, Google, Disney, Facebook or Magic Leap, and since then we have worked with over +3000 creatives from all over the world.
​
We have organized labs and Hackathons, online and in person, in the US, LatAm, Europe and Africa and some of your projects have been presented at conferences and events such as TEDx, AWE or ARIA at the MIT Media Lab.
​
Over time, we have been working more within different industries such as healthcare, public governance, or retail helping them foster their innovation efforts through new products and stories.
​
2023
​
Our dream is to keep working to build a better future in collaboration with private companies and public institutions who share our values; leveraging the power of storytelling, technology, and community to achieve so.
