About

The Mindthis Generation

A global young professional magazine focused on inspiring Generation Y with the latest analysis on foreign affairs, fashion, culture, and technology from young successful leaders. Mindthis is where governments, NGOs, and businesses alike come to understand Generation Y.

Mindthis can be considered “Media 3.0″– going far beyond the traditional press and a step past the traditional “blogosphere” in harnessing multiple experts around the world in a unique take on news and analysis. From Sweden to South Africa, the writers range from avid world travellers to young academics to professionals at the UN, HSBC, Oxford University, Deloitte and other established organizations. With tens of thousands of readers in over hundred and seventy five countries, Mindthis has established itself as the voice of Generation Y.

The New Mindthis Logo

The red-lined circle with the attached red-filled circle is reminiscent of a thought bubble, as well as a planet with a moon circling around it. It symbolizes the globality of thoughts and ideas shared by our readership and columnists. The grey and red colour scheme on our website symbolizes the harmony between impartiality, objectivity, and reliability of professionalism, and the passion, energy, and sex of young professionals.

The logo represents the unity of the complex experiences (the objective) in the universe and the unique perspective (the subjective) of each young professional.

New Layout 

As our veteran readers can tell, we have come a long way. The new design of Mindthis has been inspired by over 50 different websites from Armani to The Economist. It was crucial to nail down the right balance between practicality and the sheer beauty which embodies our unique brand. Each inch has been thought out to help our readers find the articles they want as soon as possible.

We have cut some of the fat within our sections to focus our expertise in technology, foreign affairs, fashion, and culture for young professionals within Generation Y.  We thank the people from around the world who are sending in positive feedback on how Mindthis has both flash and substance, and continues to push the limits in design.

Advertisements

After long debates, deep thought, and consultation with our Board of Directors, we have decided to display advertisements on Mindthis in the future. Although we are unique pioneers in that our readership are strictly young professionals (and we do not consider sites such as Mashable, GQ, TechCrunch, Foreign Policy, or CNN our direct competitors), in order to keep exceeding the global standard of web design, we will be generating revenue to invest in our expansion. More details to come on how companies and individuals can leverage Mindthis’s ever growing global audience.

Services

As cliche it may sound, this is truly just the start of Mindthis Magazine’s ambitions. We are comprised of young lawyers, scientists, bankers, academics, and rogue world travelers who yearn to establish Mindthis as a 21st century Think Tank Consultancy targeted to providing services to Generation Y.  Consider Mindthis your personal army of advisors in fields that matter to you.

In the coming months we will be launching cutting edge policy briefs targeted to governments, businesses, NGOs, and you through various mediums such as iPads, iPhones, Androids, BlackBerrys (if they survive), PDF, and more. In the long run, young professionals will flock to Mindthis services ranging from personal fashion advice to resume/cover letter building around the world.

The rest we shall keep a secret for the time being.

Global Partners 

Mindthis is proud to be making key strategic partnerships with internationally acclaimed NGOs and educational institutions. It is these unique relationships that further differentiates us and keeps you coming back for more. We shall announce them in the coming months.
