Assessing Needs

We understand the relationship between tech and society. We also analyze, critique, and generate projections of the future. In that process, we ask you tough questions so that we can think through your strategy together. For instance, is your tech truly poised to disrupt the status quo or are you just replicating someone else’s vision of the future? What type of future can you construct with your tech? What are the real risks, ethical pitfalls, and realizable promises associated your innovations?
