Cory Greenberg
I work in research, investigations, and intelligence analysis, a career I now pursue full time in the United States. Before that, much of my life centered on Georgia. I first went with the Peace Corps in 2011, later opened three bars in Tbilisi, and have since written a book about it.

Opened Dive, my first small business
I opened Dive in the spring of 2013 with the idea that I would have a summer clubhouse. Quickly it became much more than that. The staff, customers, shareholders and neighbors developed into a diverse community that was a lot of fun to be around.

Opened my second small business, Dive x Fabrika
DIVEx was the first tenant in the complex which would become Fabrika. On our stage we hosted live music, DJ sets and performance art from local and international artists. We opened our space to social organizations and NGOs to use for outreach and trainings during off hours. We also threw very big parties.
