Zubio

Went to an interesting alumni event a few weeks ago where I discovered a new company that is doing branded chair massage in downtown San Francisco. The company's mission is to make the benefits of chair massage available to everyone - starting with targeting employees of local corporations.

Their idea is to become the "Starbucks" of the 10 or 20-minute chair massage by having each of their massage therapists train intensively in exactly the same methodology of massage. Whenever you go to a Zubio kiosk, you will receive exactly the same kind and quality of massage.

I took advantage of their offer of a free 10-minute chair massage - it was heaven!

Just goes to show that a fascination with business can coexist quite profitably with a fascination for all sorts of topics and activities.
