Cultivating aType OneCivilization
From Type 0
To Type I
Freeman John Dyson suggested that humanity is currently at a Type 0.73 civilization, due to the fact that we continue to maintain our energy needs using earth's resources where energy forms are mildly stored such as coal, oil or natural gas. In order to achieve a Type I civilization we need to effectively have control over the energy of our host planet. This would enable humans to have complete control over our energy and dictate the natural forces on earth and the many threats of climate change.
In achieving a Type I Civilization, we move closer to a Type II Civilization where we can harness the power of our mother star, turning the light into energy, and by controlling the star itself.
Our vision is inspired by the Kardashev Scale
We measure civilizations level of technological advancement based on our ability to effectively use and harness energy from Earth and our parent star.
We Pursue Human Growth Through Technology
We are investing in the technological evolution that will define humanity over the next 100 years
Here is our strategy
Progressing Humanity
Humanity is estimated to reach a Type 1.0 in the next 100 years. Our strategy is to invest in companies solving complex infrastructure and technological leaps needed in the next decade, with the intention to continue to build and progress humanity towards a Type 1.0 Civilization.
Deep-Tech Innovation
By addressing complex and fundamental problems, deep tech innovation targets high-impact opportunities, rather than relying on known or established solutions.
Converging Approaches
Advanced science provides the breakthroughs that underpin the solutions. Engineering ensures technical and commercial feasibility for mass utilization.
Space Technology
Global space industry projected to exceed $1 trillion by 2030
Robotics
The modernization of industrial sector using robotics. The market is estimated to reach $230bln by 2030.
AI & Automation
Half of the work in the global economy can be automated — $16 trillion in wages
Decreasing Launch Costs
Funds can be shifted from Capex of launch to innovation
Growing Market
Space is expected to become a $1T market
Benefits to earth
From new space produced materials that reduced carbon emissions to resource extraction - earth benefits
Innovation ready
The underlying components in satellites has not been innovated upon in decades, leading to a massive opportunity
Earth is a nature preserve
Raw materials are more abundant in space and cause less destruction than sourcing here
Space is the great equalizer
Innovation in space benefits all industries
Future of Mobility
The future of mobility is digital, electric, and autonomous. We expect the market to reach $850bln by 2030.
Nanotechnology
Shifting the way we harvest and move energy. Market is expected to exceed $40bln by 2030.
Human Longevity
Focusing on fighting chronic disease, increasing human health, and transforming health care.
