Even w/ the right systems in place, most disruptive innovation efforts fail due to culture. Given competing demands, the challenge = fostering a culture that supports both innovation & continuation. It can feel like a paradoxical task. @nothelga helps companies design for it.
If you haven’t finished your 2027 planning yet, don’t stress. The world is scheduled to end next month.
Okay, probably not. But this particular doomsday involves a singularity, so of course we have to weigh in. 1/
Abundance still takes work, though. Around 22 percent of children under 5 worldwide still experience stunted growth from malnutrition, and that number won’t drop on its own. Making something abundant and getting it to the people who need it are two different jobs. 7/
We get to decide what tomorrow’s technology looks like. Every tool that bent the population curve came from people who chose a problem and refused to accept it as permanent. Von Foerster’s equation treated humanity like an experiment running on its own inside a sealed box. We have far more say over our circumstances than that, and we already hold the tools to make the future abundant. The question is: how will we step up to do it? 8/
We can learn deep lessons about leadership and innovation by observing and listening to the living systems around us. Biology contains powerful models of adaptability, resilience, sustainable growth, behavior, and interactions.
As production and manufacturing shift away from the centralized systems of the 20th century, how will it affect innovation and sustainability? How do locally attuned and responsive systems that adapt to local conditions—rather than trying to standardize environments—impact global systems?
If biotech follows in AI’s footsteps—and the subsequent disruptions it has caused—then what kinds of innovations can we envision along biotech’s trajectory? What solutions are out of reach today that biotech might enable in the next decade?
Leaders will face this fundamental tension in the coming decades: balancing the economic imperatives of AI driven automation against organizational values and human meaning.
What does AI sovereignty actually mean for a country, a company, and for you? Does the old assumption, ’control the land and you control your fate,’ still work once the thing to control has no body and no border?
"Within two years there will be ten times as many digital agents on the planet as there are humans.” A recent interview with Dr. David Bray is already reshaping how governments write law, how companies decide who to trust, and how individuals think about control over their own data and identity. @chief_ventures

What happens when you spend 5 days in Silicon Valley rewiring how you think about the future and your role in it? Hear directly from our alumni on the impact of the Singularity Executive Program.
Our next cohort runs October 25 to 29 at the Ameswell in Mountain View, California. Don't miss out. Join the waitlist or apply for May 2027 at su.org/executive-program
If satellites could receive power wirelessly in orbit rather than being limited to what they launched with, what application do you think becomes viable first, and what does that unlock next?
Protostar is alive and healthy on orbit! Our prototype power node is power positive and communicating with our teams here on Earth.
ICYMI: This is the first-ever attempt to beam power between two free-flying spacecraft.
Stay tuned as we build the first energy grid in space to power the orbital economy.
