What We Believe

We are not too late to harness this new wave of invention for the better.

To seize the moment we need to act early and with multiple types of capital.

The way to win is to invest in and develop networks, not individuals alone.

We drive network value through reach to talent and through quality of data and exchange.

We have the tools and vehicles to act now. We can't wait.

We deploy a broad range of capabilities to accomplish our mission.

Individually, we have held pivotal leadership roles in diverse organizations across sectors — driving the inception, development, and execution of large-scale programs with world-changing impact.

In that work, we encountered significant moments of insight that led us to create Telescope. We are dedicated to putting that experience to work in new ways.

Financial instruments to advance invention while reducing risk and harm

Creating products for companies and governments to pool risks and remedy harms

Supporting research to enhance the safety and security of new technologies

Establishing a new market for technology risk exchange

Investment in exceptional talent and visionary ideas to shape both products and policy

Launching fellowships and scholarships to integrate brilliant tech talent more fully into policy creation and dual-use product development
