Hennessy & WeWork Invest in NYC Startup

By Chilled Magazine

In the holiday spirit of giving, Hennessy Cognac, in partnership with global leader in shared community spaces, WeWork, has leveraged its success to invest in an up-and-coming business destined for greatness: Kent & Bond – a unique, organic men’s personal grooming brand that donates one bar of soap to someone in need with every product purchased.

Hennessy, WeWork, and Troy Carter (guest shark on ABC’s Shark Tank known for helping jumpstart companies such as Uber) selected Kent & Bond over hundreds of emerging businesses as the deserving recipient of a year’s worth of invaluable mentorship and office space, rent free, via the Hennessy V.S.O.P Privilège Lab at WeWork Wall Street in New York City.
