Headout

In June, our business team from around the globe came together for an inspiring and productive week at our HQ in Bangalore! 🤝 The agenda was simple: reflect on our achievements from the first half of the year, and meticulously plan for the next. With a healthy side of fun, of course - from team dinners, treks and cook-offs and museum visits. 🚶 It's safe to say that the energy was contagious and the camaraderie? Even better. We're SO excited for the rest of the year and to achieve greater milestones together. 💜

This World Environment Day, our teams took giving back to the next level! 🤩 Swipe to see everything we did. 👉 While it marked a special beginning, our dedication to creating change is something we carry with us every day. Here's hoping for a healthier planet for us all! 🌱

At Headout, our mission is to shape a world full of magical *real-life* experiences. This mission is increasingly critical in the age of AI. To leverage the best of AI to further our mission and our shared humanity, we are stoked to welcome Dabble, a Y Combinator co., into our fold. 🤝 We foresee a world with improved human productivity & creativity giving us more time for things that matter. And in this world, we'll need to reimagine what an incredible real life experience looks like with AI at the center of it all. And that's what this partnership is about. The first time I met Neil Mathew, Yan Ma and Prasenjit Mukherjee, I just knew it. They've been at the cutting edge of AI, computer vision & new media. More importantly, deeply believe in tech augmenting our humanity and hence are the right people to help us realise our shared mission faster. They've been at it as a team since University of Waterloo days and were since backed by Y Combinator, Version One Ventures and others and delivered some phenomenal products that were always one step ahead of what was to come. I am thankful to the Dabble team in choosing to head out on this journey with us. There is a lot to build and a lot to solve for, and together it'll be a lot of fun. More updates soon. And kudos to Boris Wertz for getting us together. This is what a value-add investor looks like. 😉 More details in the comments.

To celebrate World Culture Day on May 21, our offices around the globe came alive as we hosted a "Dress Up and Bring Your Cultural Food to Work" day, and what a feast it turned out to be! 🌍🤩 The vibrant outfits and mouth-watering dishes from Nepal to Germany and India to Italy, transformed our workspace into a colorful celebration of heritage and tradition. With each attire and dish telling a unique story, it's safe to say this was one of the most heartwarming days we've had in office. The laughter, the stories, and the delicious food created a spirit of unity and joy, with a side of serious food coma. 😉 A HUGE thank you to everyone who participated and made this day unforgettable. Your enthusiasm and pride in sharing your culture truly embody the spirit of Headout. 💜
