In this new era, senior corporate professionals are leaving the ladder behind to launch specialized service businesses, offering their expertise on demand. Employment itself is beginning to look like a subscription: companies bring you in when they need your skills, and cancel when they don't.
AI is the accelerant creating this perfect storm. On one hand, it's making many traditional roles redundant. On the other, AI tools have lowered the barrier to build new products and services - meaning there has never been a better time to bet on your own skills.
This is going to create a fundamentally new economic model: where elite expertise, once locked inside enterprises, is now accessible to startups and small businesses everywhere.
Consulting and professional services haven't fundamentally changed in 30 years. The industry still relies on brand reputation, highly paid executives working in siloes, and slide-deck "deliverables."
The next generation of entrepreneurs is rethinking professional services from the ground up. How they acquire clients. How they deliver work. How they scale. Everything is being re-engineered with AI at the core.
From day one, they are being enabled by AI platforms that give them scale and efficiency without sacrificing independence.
Gia is building this platform.
At the core of this new AI-augmented services model:
We are building at the intersection of these two macro-trends.
Gia is the all-in-one growth platform for professional service entrepreneurs - designed to handle every aspect of their business apart from the expertise only they can deliver.
Our mission is to empower 1 million people to start, run, and grow their services businesses, giving the next generation of entrepreneurs the leverage they need to stop building someone else's dream, and start scaling their own.
