01 / Connect the dots
Less scattered. More connected.

Some ideas won’t
leave you alone.

Keep Thinking is Stephen Johnston’s planned start-up, built around a simple ambition: a second brain for work. A place where ideas, conversations and research connect — and help you see what to do next. The same brain should work across more than one field, including sustainability and regeneration, so we can prove the idea is bigger than a single sector.

Keep, the working knowledge platform at Fordcastle, is a related proving ground. Keep Thinking is the next venture taking shape, not just a new name for Keep.

01 / GATHER↘

Keep the useful things.

A thought worth saving. A conversation worth revisiting. A piece of research that changes the question.

02 / CONNECT↘

Find the thread.

Step back from the individual note. Look for the patterns between people, questions and possibilities.

03 / THINK FORWARD↘

See a little further.

Bring what you know to the work ahead. Not more information for its own sake. A clearer starting point.

From an itch to a venture

Stay curious.
Keep thinking.

We’re shaping the product and exploring accelerator programmes and funding, starting with people who have already shown an interest — including those who want to think better about sustainability and regeneration. Early days. A real itch. Work worth doing.

For a sense of the thinking in practice, explore Keep — the living platform at Fordcastle.
