Carl Pei’s new venture will be named “Nothing”. Yes, you read it right, that’s the name of his company. “Nothing” is will be based in London and will be a ‘consumer technology’ company. The investors of this new start-up are YouTuber Casey Neistat, Reddit CEO Steve Huffman, Kevin Lin (the cofounder of Twitch) and the iPod inventor Tony Fadell.

“It’s been a while since anything interesting happened in tech. It is time for a fresh breeze of change. Nothing’s mission is to remove barriers between people and technology to create a seamless digital future. We believe that the best technology is beautiful, yet natural and intuitive to use. When sufficiently advanced, it should fade into the background and feel like nothing.” – Carl Pei, CEO of the company.
Carl Pei wants to decrease the distance between people and technology. His aim, through ‘Nothing’, is to create an ecosystem that can help people to grow with technology. It is still unknown what kind of products will the company sell. But their products are soon going to hit the market.
The company stated that by the first half of 2021, we will be seeing their “smart devices” in the market. Carl Pei didn’t even mention that who is going to be the competitors of his company. It is believed that the company might start by manufacturing headphones. Eventually, they will shift to create a whole ecosystem of music products and services. Let’s wait and see what Carl Pei can bring to us very soon!
