GIGS 2 GO™
Portable "Tear-and-Share" Storage
Made from molded paper pulp, this inexpensive, credit-card-sized data pack is a fast, easy way to share large files. 
 
Gigs 2 Go started as a blue-sky concept, which we shared through our Behance portfolio. But thanks to lots of great feedback and a successful Kickstarter campaign, we are excited to have Gigs 2 Go in production! You can get yours HERE.
When you need to share files on-the-go, simply tear off a tab from the GIGS.2.GO pack. Each tab is a tiny thumb drive. Because GIGS.2.GO is inexpensive and made from renewable materials, you can feel comfortable leaving the tabs behind. And you've still got more tabs, ready when you need them.
 
The molded paper pulp enclosure is made from 100% post-consumer recycled paper. It's renewable, biodegradable, lightweight, cheap, and durable enough to ensure that each tab should last for many uses.

Handmaking early prototypes
Design for Manufacture: In the initial design stages of this project we were approached by several manufacturers who wanted to work with us in making Gigs 2 Go a reality. After a thorough evaluation we have chosen CustomUSB, a Chicago-based custom flash drive manufacturer who makes custom products for Harley-Davidson, Mattel, and HBO. Together, we've tested several rounds of prototypes, perfected the paper pulp enclosure to make sure it is durable and the tabs tear properly, and that the electronics are robust and secure.  
 
Kickstarter Campaign: In December 2013, we launched a Kickstarter campaign to make Gigs 2 Go a reality. We reached our goal, thanks in part to the Behance community. Gigs 2 Go is now available!
