Professional background

/I. Overview/
I've been working on the intersection of tech and society since the 2005 year - when I've become a tech explorer and launched a hardware think tank. Over my journey, I founded and co-created tech startups and labs, helped to facilitate tech ecosystems through North America to APAC, MENA, Africa, Europe, screened over 2000 teams, contributed projects in ethics (AI, tech), deeptech and sustainability.

/II. Mission/
Driven by my personal journey, my work is focused on human-centered tech, research and policies behind it, emerging products and ventures which shape the future of learning, work, wellbeing, ability and access. If you are on the same mission, let's become allies or work together.

/III. Work Together/
● Tech (EIR, evaluator). As an entrepreneur in residence, my expertise is focused on connecting the dots of tech and product models, user research and experience, decentralized teams and communities. As an evaluator, my work is screening and evaluating technology teams, products, prototypes typically on pre-scale stages.

● Research & policy (Explorer). My exploration interest is focused on research and policy behind human-centered technology and products. My goal is to ensure that any technology design or AI are implemented and deployed in a responsible and ethical way, including challenges related to safety, privacy, human rights, transparency, explainability.

● Halo Co (Ventures). I collect micro-portfolios of promising like-minded projects and products (typically through boards and alliances). Currently, there are several directions: "1st" - future of learning, wellbeing, work, "2nd" - gender, women and diversity, "3rd" - sustainable/circular economy and consumer products.
