Flow Research Collective, founded by Steven Kotler and Rian Doris, is at the forefront of studying the science of flow states and their impact on human performance. Launched in 2019, the organization initially aimed to decode the complexities of flow using neurobiology, but quickly evolved into a global training institute. Over the past five years, Flow Research Collective has reached participants in more than 160 countries and 28 industries, training diverse groups, including professional athletes, military personnel, and Fortune 500 executives. Their flagship program, Zero-to-Dangerous, has transformed flow into a reliable and repeatable process, impacting organizations like Meta and the US Air Force.

In addition to training, Flow Research Collective is deeply committed to groundbreaking research. They have explored various areas such as the relationship between flow and psychedelics, caffeine, and even business performance, producing notable publications in leading scientific journals. As of November 2024, the organization will refocus on research while continuing to support existing clients, marking a significant pivot back to its roots in pursuit of flow science advancement.
