We\u2019re building a community of anthropologist-futurist-technologists who can navigate between code and culture. Thinkers who can connect the dots between what\u2019s possible and what\u2019s meaningful. You should be both optimistic (able to see the adjacent possible) and skeptical (able to challenge claims, assumptions, and hype). Holding both modes simultaneously is core to the Strange research method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our mission is to map out disruptive inventions and identify the most promising opportunities for founders, operators, and investors.
