Meet Alicia Seay - Founder of Brave Intangibles

Meet Alicia Seay is a social entrepreneur and service design consultant who's spent over a decade working in technology, combining tech, communications, and human potential to help groups and individuals build futures they can believe in.

From co-founding idea incubators and alternative economies to building blockchain platforms for engineers, she's been designing systems that put human needs at the center, not as an afterthought. Her work started in a small office in Richmond, VA, took her to stages in LA and San Francisco, and brought her back to open a creative studio in Richmond's Arts District, all while staying grounded in the belief that innovation should create shared value, not just siloed profit.

As founder of Brave Intangibles, Alicia works with organizations to design experiences and systems where efficiency and humanity work together, knowing that intangible assets like knowledge, trust, collaboration, empathy, and more are the invisible foundation that makes meaningful outcomes possible. Whether she's leading innovation bootcamps, hosting design sprints, speaking on the future of human connection and technology, or mentoring the next generation of digital
entrepreneurs, her focus stays consistent: using communications, creativity, and tech to inspire real change and help people design systems and services for building more intentional futures.
