JA Westenberg — Co-Founder
I spend most of my time trying to figure out how the world works. My writing appears in Wired, The Next Web, The Australian Financial Review, and TIME. I write The Index, a blog about politics from a rationalist perspective, and Westenberg, where I think through questions about philosophy, technology, and strategy. I also run two companies: Signalvs, a communications consultancy, and Product Positioning, a product marketing agency. The through line in all of this is a basic curiosity about how we got here and where we're headed. Technology keeps changing the rules of politics and social life, often in ways we don't fully understand until years later. I'm interested in the gap between what we think is happening and what's actually happening, and how ordinary people navigate that uncertainty.
