Sinopsis
We are two students, friends, and venture partners for Contrary Capital devoted to learning as much as possible from thought-leaders across multiple disciplines in an attempt to grow. While we value our education, we also believe that universities don't explicitly teach nuanced and prolific perspectives in understanding the world around us . We call these perspectives mental models (concepts, frameworks, or world-views that people build of their surroundings and field).At Hypergrowth, we want to build a toolbox of these models - from some of the greatest thinkers in the world.
