Using Nature’s Intelligence to Take Advantage of Evolved Nash Equilibrium Principles to Unlock Value and Support Entrepreneurs Overlooked by Most of the Investment Community

________________________________

Our “Phoenix Investing” service area involves investing research on the following: 1) multi-capitalization public equities and 2) digital assets for experiential learning of how to apply our living systems investing principles (we do not chase the herd, instead seeking pockets of real value creation). 

Investors can expect a mixture of written content as well as podcasts, live webinars, and videos with interdisciplinary experts. We are not investment advisors to invest at your own risk. This is for educational purposes only.  

Both our areas of focus tend to be volatile and risky with big sell offs following large bubbles and then rising again. Both areas can benefit from our natural intelligence perspective, which is unique for finding opportunities away from the herd and managing layers of risks not possible using other approaches.

We focus on the edge of chaos in misunderstood, overlooked, off the radar, and turnaround situations. It is a fun service area. Keep in mind that this is not a typical investment research product. We discuss coherence and alignment as it relates to our living systems investing principles with the intention of helping to unblock value in these important companies and projects. Phoenix Investing is tightly integrated with The Pythia Scrolls.

We also give members a chance to present their own ideas, as long as they use our natural intelligence systems principles.

We discuss global companies that are both coherent and incoherent with the principles. The degree of coherence is especially helpful in determining which companies have the best systemic value propositions and which ones are exposed to the most risk during these liminal times. We also use the principles to brainstorm about how to help companies with exciting products and services that may be struggling and do not fit very well in the current winner take all system.

You can make venture capital-like returns with our strategies over shorter time frames. However, there is also much more volatility and risk, so our focus and approach is not for the risk averse. Some areas where we focus can be highly predatory and the companies illiquid, but we also focus on newly emerging industries and exciting new trends. We use game theory principles in their higher potential with the intention to support these important edge entrepreneurs. We seek high integrity investors, as this space attracts many sleazy people who do not care about systemic value creation.

“Phoenix Investing” is highly synergistic with and integrated into our foundational service area “The Pythia Scrolls” (interdisciplinary, networked intelligence and living systems investing trends research) and is the only way to access “Phoenix Investing” content.

Contact us here or contact Lynn Marie DePippo directly here: lynndepippo@gmail.com if you are interested to explore our new founding membership in The Pythia Scrolls which contains the following service areas: 1) Codex – educational materials; 2) The Scrolls – interactive trends research 3) Phoenix Investing.

 

This following linked article called “Why Ecosystem Restoration” was written by Desiree Driesenaar and this is a bit more about her: Biomimicry. Systemic Design. Abundance. Writer. Keynote speaker. Educator. She discusses the need to nourish and take care of the earth and how we need to move  from 2D to 3D solutions using permaculture and agroforestry techniques. Her article was in the newsletter called “Abundanism/Combining complexity with simplicity. Redesigning human systems with abundance and biomimicry.”

This article is one of the best articles I have read in a long time. It should be required reading. Desiree’s ideas are not iterative for the world, but revolutionary. Her article describes a complete rethink of our global communities Mother Nature style. Her ideas are also compatible with advanced science and math such as complexity science, chaos theory, and quantum science. What is not compatible is our current global economic paradigm based on flawed science and math. Our current economic models based on scarcity are flawed and need to change. Natural intelligence is the key to upgrading these models as well. Following natural intelligence is key to everything we need to change in this world, including the intense polarization across many complex global problems. Her article does a fantastic job of describing these necessary changes across industries using wisdom from nature. She cites many good examples, such as the scale arguments people usually use when saying permaculture (a type of sustainable agroforestry framework) principles cannot work in a scalable way to solve complex interrelated problems. It is true that implementing permaculture for systemic change requires rethinking how we currently view capitalism. Capitalism itself is not the problem but the flawed way we think about it and the flawed linear math of current economic theories (where exceptions to the rule are considered normal). Win/win solutions require nonlinear math to understand for the logical people in the room that want proof of all these things that sound too esoteric. Natural intelligence is not linear. It is spherical. It requires spherical thinking to understand. As Desiree describes, living systems have movement, flow, chaos, vortices…They are not static.
