Independent intelligence on frontier technology, capital and human capability
Frontier Intelligence is my research platform for understanding the technologies, companies and capital systems shaping the next decade.
I follow technological convergence rather than isolated sectors: where artificial intelligence meets biology, where digital money becomes infrastructure, where sensing and robotics expand human capability, and where new venture models reorganize who can build, fund and govern technology.
The work combines first-hand field research, conversations across international ecosystems, company and technology analysis, cultural signals and long-term systems thinking. It is designed for founders, investors, family offices and institutions that need judgment before consensus forms.
What I track
Artificial intelligence and sovereign compute
Model architectures, agentic systems, AI infrastructure, embodied intelligence, edge compute, open systems and the political economy of concentrated intelligence.
Digital finance and stablecoin infrastructure
Stablecoins, payment and settlement rails, tokenized assets, digital identity, decentralized finance and the institutions emerging around programmable money.
Biotech, longevity and neurotechnology
Programmable biology, next-generation diagnostics, cellular and gene technologies, healthy longevity, brain health and new platforms for biological intelligence.
Human capability, sensing and robotics
Affective technology, wearables, multimodal sensing, human–machine interfaces, adaptive environments, robotics and technologies that extend rather than diminish agency.
Frontier venture capital
New fund models, family-office strategies, deeptech commercialization, ecosystem formation, geopolitical capital flows and the translation of scientific breakthroughs into investable platforms.
Culture as infrastructure
The narratives, experiences, symbols and communities that determine whether a technology becomes trusted, desired and socially durable.
