Company
Overview.

Mann Patel MXNN began building companies as a teenager, launching MxnnCreates — a high-end digital studio specializing in immersive, performance-driven web experiences. Within its first three months, the studio had directly worked with billion-dollar brands including iHeartMedia and Lyrical Lemonade, alongside high-visibility creators and public figures commanding audiences in the millions. The work earned an Honorable Mention from Framer and official recognition from Figma, establishing Mann as a leader in the interactive design space and propelling MxnnCreates into the top 5 on Crunchbase.

As the studio scaled, its work was featured across Business Insider, Morningstar, Benzinga, Yahoo Finance, FOX, MarketWatch, and the Associated Press. His company was invited to speak on Gary Vaynerchuk's podcast and media channels, with his content generating over 15 million views and building a following of more than 50,000 across platforms. The London Daily News named him the #1 Canadian Entrepreneur and #1 Under-30 Founder. ICON named him one of the youngest CEOs worldwide. He was ranked among the Top 20 people on Crunchbase globally.

It was through this growing intersection of technology, media, and high-profile brand work that Mann first encountered the press industry from the inside — and the structural failures that made it inaccessible to the vast majority of businesses and professionals producing serious work. His first move into press came through the New-York Weekly Journal, a publication with nearly two centuries of history that had gone dormant. Mann revived the outlet, initially contributing as a writer covering technology, creativity, and emerging digital trends, before taking on the role of CTO — overseeing its digital systems, workflow, and technology infrastructure. He also began contributing to Brainz Magazine, writing on entrepreneurship and innovation.

That knowledge, combined with years of quietly building direct relationships with outlet owners across the global media landscape, became the foundation of MXNN Media. What began as a private practice — placing coverage through personal relationships with the people who own and operate the publications the world trusts — evolved into a full platform offering 50+ services across every major industry.

In parallel, Mann founded Sylzo, an invite-only AI company pioneering ACI — Artificial Creative Intelligence — a system built not to replace original thinking but to enhance it. The New-York Weekly Journal named Sylzo the #1 Creative AI Company, and TrendingNow recognized it for youth-led innovation in artificial intelligence. He also serves as CTO of Orphiqe, a health-focused platform centered on clarity, intention, and long-term personal grounding. In recognition of the full body of work across his ventures, Mann received the Global Recognition Award and Stellar Business Award.
