Kevin Slavin’s Expertise At the intersections between science, technology and culture, most frequently in New York City. Since 2020, I've led commercialization and Creative, Marketing and Communications efforts around biosafety and biosecurity. Worked with Phylagen and Poppy, and now, Ginkgo Biosecurity. Former lead for the Pandemic Task Force at Crossover Health, as well as VP overseeing all Marketing and Communications while there. In various roles during this time, I've co-developed patented methods for environmental sensing and visualization, generated over 8MM in revenue, and led successful introductions and outcomes with press, investors and customers. Prior to 2020, I was founding Chief Science and Technology Officer for the Shed, as it began to build the 500 million dollar cultural institution in New York City's Hudson Yards. For eight years, I was a trustee and Vice Chair, for the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art. In 2015, I was the co-founding editor of the MIT Press “Journal of Design and Science.” I also consult to some of the largest and the newest companies in the world, to support their communications and strategy. Between 2013 and 2017, I was faculty and Principal Investigator for a research group at MIT's Media Lab, where I retain title of Research Affiliate. My group focused on intersections between culture, communications, and science, and included pioneering work in the field of urban metagenomics. As an entrepreneur, in 2015 I co-founded Collective Decision Engines with Dr. Glen Weyl and a small team, to develop Quadratic Voting for market research. In 2013, I co-founded Everybody at Once with Kenyatta Cheese, a digital-first media agency that continues to grow and thrive under his leadership. In 2005, with Frank Lantz, I co-founded Area/Code Entertainment. Through to its acquisition in 2011, Area/Code focused on cross-media entertainment and "games with computers in them,” pioneering the design and technologies of location-based games, second screen entertainment, and other forms of novel engagement through play. Our projects were featured in everything from the New York Times to the Museum of Modern Art. This also included extensive consulting around early generations of location-based services and entertainment. Between 1995 and 2005 I worked in some of New York's most celebrated agencies to direct teams in the design, marketing and communication around tech brands, products and services. These included operating systems, cable services, telcos, wireless, and one or two fighter-bombers.
