Djordje Mancev and Felix Hosse launched the Berlin Center for Individualist Thought in the summer of 2021. As one of the most cosmopolitan capitals of Europe and one of the fastest growing hubs of tech and finance start-ups, Berlin offers a wide range of possibilities for reaching young people who want to flourish and thus are ripe for Rand’s ideas.
The core of BCIT is the Roark Academy, a school geared toward teaching the principles of Objectivism to young entrepreneurs, tech people, and finance professionals in Berlin’s ever-growing startup community.
To promote BCIT and the Roark Academy and generate curiosity about Rand and her works, Djordje and Felix are leveraging Berlin’s highly active (and culturally and legally permissible) sticker/poster culture, placing “Who is John Galt?” stickers (that include the BCIT’s URL) in strategic places throughout Berlin. So, the next time you’re in Berlin, keep an eye out!
