The Company

Workweek is a media & technology company on a mission to entertain, educate, and connect the business world through unique personalities, unparalleled expertise, and innovative operations.

  2. Host professional communities to foster growth & development for the people in those media brands’ audiences – which in includes producing live & virtual events and educational resources (i.e. toolkits & courses) (For example, the Safe Space community, which is made up of members of the I Hate It Here audience.)

  3. Develop software tools & services for those business verticals based on learnings gathered from the media brands’ audiences & communities. (For example, Krokit, a software tool for the The Wolf of Franchises’ audience.)

Simply put, we help professionals grow in their careers by providing them with the information, network, and tools they need to thrive.
