ORIGIN / STANDING ORDERS

THE BOARD

The formality is the joke.
The invitation is real.

Board Meeting began by taking Wall Street's buttoned-up vocabulary and assigning it better work: drinks, flirting, friendship, and belonging.

Monday at 5PM became the ritual. Close the laptop. Open the calendar. Start the work week in a room where introductions compound.

FiDi is the setting and the material. After the closing bell, we reclaim the district on our own terms.
