what is praxis

Praxis is leading this movement. We are building a new city, organized around vitality.

Praxis is a society of future city residents, ranging from founders, creatives, investors, and all in-between.

Our membership is application-based. Once accepted, members attend events and can participate in the building of the city.

Most importantly, members have a shared way of life: optimism, good health, clear purpose, and commitment to an idea greater than themselves, encapsulated in a word: Vitality.

Many new city projects begin with construction, then search for residents. Praxis inverts this process: we built the community first. Together, we’re building the city where we want to live.

Roadmap:

demand: Gather a base of talented, values-aligned future residents, who represent demand for the city >> DONE

financing: Partner with large, sophisticated pools of capital on the basis of proven demand >> IN PROGRESS

governance: Partner with a forward-looking government that wants to invite the most talented people in the world to help grow their economy

development: Acquire land and develop physical infrastructure

move in: Phase I: 10,000 Residents

“Web3 and the metaverse are nothing without a vital and dynamic real world. That’s why I’m going to move to Praxis.”

“Praxis is leading this movement by building a new city organized around the value of vitality, a principle that unifies across culture, time, and space, to enable people to live healthier, more purposeful lives.”

In pursuit of our community’s new home, we are actively engaging with landowners and governments, designing economic and political systems, architecting buildings and infrastructure, and bringing together the people who will inhabit them. We are early in the project’s lifecycle but are excited about the momentum we are building.

what does that entail? how are you engaging in real terms?

Our team includes founders of publicly traded companies, Y Combinator execs, as well as veterans from governments and city development projects. We have begun expanding our Real Estate, Governance, and Engineering teams, along with an internal city research and design studio (the World Building Studio).

We prioritize discovering top talent and cultivating a meritocratic culture because we believe hard work and earned skills are paramount to success. If you want to tackle difficult problems, work with talented people, and build a better future for humanity by building new cities,
