The books behind the thesis.
Two living books from Salim Ismail — Exponential Organizations 2.0 and The Organizational Singularity — that together describe the operating system we invest around.
Both are living books. The canonical texts and continuously updated commentary live on the OpenExO sites linked below, where the architecture inside them is being applied in real time — by the fund, by OpenExO, and by the companies building the next chapter.
Exponential Organizations 2.0.
The decade-on rewrite of the original Exponential Organizations: the operating pattern that named the fastest-growing companies of the last decade, updated for the post-2024 AI-native firm.
