Our Purpose

Solve happiness and the future of human fulfilment in the Singularity Era.

Our Vision

To create a future where happiness, wellbeing & fulfilment are at the centre of society.

Imagine a 2050 where a trillion-dollar company was creating a trillion dollars of joy; where work felt meaningful and fulfilling for everyone; where wellbeing was part of our educational infrastructure; where technology maximises for the enrichment of the human soul; where happiness was our starting point, versus something to be pursued.

Humanity has lifted billions out of poverty, taken steps on the moon, and sent robots to Mars – this is our next step forward.

“A map of the world that does not include Utopia is not worth even glancing at, for it leaves out the one country at which humanity is always landing. Progress is the realisation of utopias.”
