Transformative Technology Hack Day

Our mission is to permanently move a billion people into a state of wellbeing and flourishing by 2030.We are a global community of entrepreneurs, innovators, and investors building tech for mental health, emotional wellbeing, and human flourishing. We sit at the intersection of neuroscience, psychology, tech, entrepreneurship, and innovation. We leverage exponential technologies like AI, AR/VR/XR, networks and sensors, biotech, neurofeedback, robotics and more to build tech to enable human wellbeing at scale.We start with this premise – the Future of Work, Society, and Tech DEPENDS on the State of the Human Mind. This question – How do we enable every human to develop their full potential? And this belief -- together, we can create an unprecedented era of human flourishing.We can take the tech that has taxed our thinking and relationships and use it instead to transform our hearts and minds. We can have greater clarity, joy and connection -- and ultimately more possibility for all of humanity.We must have flourishing because we cannot solve our other problems without having healthy human minds. Psychological wellbeing was once considered a luxury – something you get at the end of a stressful and fear-filled life. But now we need flourishing – to work, to live, to thrive. This is why we need to build the tech that we really, actually, need. The tech that helps us know ourselves better than algorithms, that helps us connect to ourselves and one another. The tech that supports our hearts and minds. Remember: We can design tech to serve us, to prioritize human contact and connection.

Transformative Technology Lab

Calling all well-being and mental health hackers, creatives, and passion people! Join the Transformative Technology Lab for the re-launch of our signature HACK DAY on Saturday, Dec 3.
At Hack Day, makers and creatives will form interdisciplinary project teams and explore our most promising ideas on psychological transformation in an informal, action-oriented environment.  
This event is IDEAL to bring your idea to life, connect with like-minded makers and doers, and explore our lab's extensive library of transformative technologies.
Makers: find new collaborators across skillsets in full-stack, VR, data science, biosensors, and design as you get feedback on your ideas and make forward progress.
Not an engineer? By request, we've added a non-technical track based on Design Thinking, an interdisciplinary collaboration process pioneered at Stanford. No experience necessary. 
If you just want to play, we will be featuring yoga and dance classes on demand, as well as demos of several transformative technologies, including: Muse EEG, HeartMath stress tracking, GSR skin conductance, tDCS brain stimulation, light-and-sound brain entrainment, and the mythical God Helmet. 
Don't have an idea? No problem! Join one of our community projects, and learn about the most promising new technologies in the space of psychological transformation:
+ “Biofields in Virtual Reality w/ Lewey G:” Visualize the human biofield in VR using biosensors and a simulation engine. Learn more at vrbiofields.strikingly.com.
+ “Open-Source Brain Hacking w/ NeurotechX SV:" Join our community of brain hackers to explore the latest tools in quantified brain science, including an open-source wearable analytics platform. Learn more at neurotechx.com.
+ "Real-Time Meditation Biofeedback w/ Ari:" Explore different ways of integrating biofeedback from HRV, EEG, and GSR into the legendary meditation course run by the TTL. Learn more about the course at finderscourse.com.
Join us on Facebook to stay tuned on the latest community updates, and connect with your fellow makers before and after the event: https://www.facebook.com/events/222298314842365/
