Building Tomorrow’s Post-Scarcity Economy, Today
Imagine a world where we could economically provide a healthy meal to a family of four for an hour or two of minimum wage work- or a month of housing for one day’s work. This kind of thinking requires a dramatic reimagination of so many parts of how we do business. Between the roles of people and technology in our economy, sustainable supply chains and how we all derive meaning from our work we’re on the long path of setting humanity up for success in the next hundred years.
Build on successful legacies with cutting-edge technologies
The only truly finite resource in life is time. Our overarching goal is to maximize the value of time for our customers and employees using technology.
What is Post-Scarcity?
Post-Scarcity is simply the concept of efficient creation and distribution of the existing abundance in our capitalist world. How can the world’s richest nations throw out over 100 billion pounds of food per year and still have families go hungry? How can a city have empty homes and people sleeping under an overpass? We have the moral obligation to ask these hard questions. Then we can design economic incentives and business systems that create the target human outcomes.
How do we get there?
We use models that identify key opportunities in our economy and guide our acquisitions over both long and short-term time horizons. There is no straight-line path to this destination. We’re working with businesses across the supply chain to deliberately evolve their services before their industry makes them obsolete. By working up from first principals in a meritocratic and collaborative structure of agile experimentation we are taking bold strides towards this vision.
