02 — BUILT FOR

This Is Who
We're Building.

Thousands of Brennans, Jadas, and Tristens exist right now — underestimated, underleveraged, and more ready than the industry knows. MGP finds them, builds them, and connects them to the opportunities that deserve them. We just know what to do with them.

The Athlete-Strategist
Brennan
Brand Strategist · Los Angeles
Former D2 athlete. Taught himself to code at 10. Speaks Python and pop culture in the same sentence
Culture is his operating system. Technology is his edge. The court is where he figured both out
What we're building "He doesn't need a shot. He needs to be pointed at the right problem."
J
The Cultural Translator
Jada
Creative Strategist · Atlanta
Built Matcha & Makeovers — a beauty blog at the intersection of wellness, style, and real life
Understands consumers because she is one. Knows exactly when a brand gets it wrong
What we're building "Give Jada your toughest brief. She'll give you your most honest campaign."
T
The Builder
Tristen
Retail & Partnerships · Dallas
Retail store manager who knows customers — not demographics, actual people and what makes them buy
Built an influencer following by being real, not polished. Closed his first brand deal at 19
What we're building "Tristen doesn't wait for permission. He builds the thing and asks for forgiveness."

There are thousands more where they came from.
We just know what to do with them.

04 — WHAT YOU GET

What Your
Brand Gets.

The brands that win the next decade earned the trust of the people shaping culture right now. Here's how MGP gets you there.

01
Access Emerging Consumer Voices
MGP Fellows are the tastemakers and cultural translators your brand needs — not in a focus group, but through real partnership. They don't follow trends. They set them.
02
Show Up Where It Actually Counts
Partnering with MGP is proof, not performance. Twenty years of delivery — and a visible signal to the communities shaping culture that your brand is worth their attention.
03
Build Your Talent Pipeline from the Source
MGP Fellows become brand managers, content leads, and CMOs. Partner now and you're recruiting tomorrow's leaders before anyone else finds them.
04
Get in Before the Next Chapter Opens
2027 is 20 years. Twenty years of a model that was never supposed to work — according to everyone who didn't build it. The organizations at the table now won't just witness what comes next. They'll help build it.
05 — PARTNERSHIP TRACKS

Three Ways
to Plug In.

Two proven entry points. One category-defining new model. Every track delivers real output, real talent, and a real shift in how your brand connects to what's next.

01
iCR8™ Bootcamp Partner
The Flagship Talent Accelerator · 11 Weeks
The closest thing marketing has to elite special forces training. Cohorts operate as pop-up agencies solving your live brief — then hand you a complete 360° campaign. Partners gain mentorship access, judging panels, and executive visibility in workforce development. Bootcamp partnerships consistently evolve into multi-year platforms. Not sponsorship. Talent acquisition + cultural insight + brand innovation in one investment.
$500K
02
iCR8™ Workshop Partner
Four-Day Talent Sprint · Up to 30 Participants
Four days. Up to 30 Fellows. One real brief. On Day 4 they present a full campaign to your executives. Tailored to sports, entertainment, beauty, fashion, tech, and content verticals. A live audition with strategic output in hand — and a clear pathway into full Bootcamp partnership.
$35K
03
Culture. Content. Code.
The Future of Brand Marketing · Built Here First
This is where MGP breaks new ground. Co-create original content, campaigns, and culturally-coded brand experiences with Fellows who live at the intersection of technology, storytelling, and street-level insight. Not a focus group. Not an agency. Something the industry hasn't named yet — and your brand gets to be the first to build it.
Let's Define It
06 — LET'S GO

Let's Build
Something
New.

Want a full campaign built around your brief, a hiring pipeline, and long-term brand association? That's the Bootcamp. Want a low-risk test drive with real strategic output in four days? That's the Workshop. Either way, you are investing in the marketers who will define the next decade of brand growth.
