We make apps, websites, hardware, marketing, branding, packaging, business processes, technology. We are not an agency, all of our ventures are partnerships. At Bonobo we generally forgo job titles in favour of calling ourselves Great Apes, after our namesake. It reflects the flat structure of our team. We believe that if you work with people more talented than yourself and trust them implicitly, you don’t need a traditional boss. We are software engineers, designers, writers, entrepreneurs, problem solvers, animators, chefs, rock climbers, photographers, mathematicians and more. Our diverse interests are crucial to our success in creating compelling experiences and tackling big challenges. In 2018 we expanded our partnership with Moleskine and founded Moleskine Digital Studio where we created the highly renowned apps Timepage, Actions and Flow which have been downloaded by millions of customers around the world. We work with individuals, companies and likeminded investors that share our passion for great design, innovation & brave ideas. Show less
