We had the good fortune of connecting with Rob Brady and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Rob, what role has risk played in your life or career?
I love risk – apparently – but it can be a bitch! As a product designer and studio CEO with globally based clients for over 25 years, we are ALWAYS asked to push the status quo and deliver to a new ventures or fortune 100 company that “market disruptive, game-changing, iconic thing that will reset our world” … Yea, no problem … dependent on your appetite for risk that is 🙂

What should our readers know about your business?
We love, love, love to create new products. But it’s developing the right product that’s always the challenge. Our methodical process begins with investing time and resources to understand not just the product, but the client and their marketplace, before we start a new mission. In this way, we see beyond the product-picture to the big-picture and measure success, not just by short-term profitability, but long-term sustainability and the building of life-long personal relationships.

Any great local spots you’d like to shoutout?
Setting Sarasota apart from most places in America is our amazing water and weather. A must-do from me is kayaking through one of our many beautiful mangroves or cruising over the shallows in the Bay or Gulf to see who’s swimming around in the early morning hours. Wrapping up the best days is an early evening pool side “sip and dip” with family and friends via our backyard sanctuary.
