Studio Forene is a
strategy and collaboration
advisory building a better tomorrow.

There's a lot happening in the world, and none of us can solve it alone. Studio Forene – drawn from the Norwegian word that means 'to unite' – is both a name and a manifesto: a belief that collaboration and getting the right partners in the room are essential for designing and building a better tomorrow.

About the Founder

Lauren Guido

Lauren Guido has spent her career working at the nexus of cross-sector collaboration, innovation, and strategy.

While at the Clinton Foundation, Lauren led economic programming for the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) and its intersections with climate, entrepreneurship, health, narrative, and technology – engaging with government & policy makers (local, state, federal, global), Fortune 500 businesses, academia, philanthropy, NGOs, and the media. Additionally, she pioneered new ways for CGI's community and 3,000+ Annual Meeting attendees to engage and build meaningful relationships that drive real change.

Prior to moving to New York, Lauren lived abroad nearly a decade. She most recently worked at the Anglo-Nordic advisory, Xynteo, where she supported companies like IKEA, Mastercard, Unilever, and Verizon to create innovative, inclusive, and planet-positive growth through systems collaboration, strategy, and foresight.

Outside of work, Lauren is an avid urban and gravel cyclist, sauna-goer, and meditator with a deep love of the arts.
