2016–

The word PRESENT and its many meanings are building the pillars of the project: Hugo founded PRESENT in 2016 in NYC. It’s his publishing project and global community. Hugo builds tools to support Modern Makers: from the print magazine and digital platform, to in-depth podcasts and regular workshops.

PRESENT is for all makers and dreamers. For all dreamers who make. For anyone creating something and challenging themselves on purpose. We share ways of overcoming procrastination and self-doubts that hold us back from being truly present and tackle our favorite unrealized projects.
