Human Deeptech
Deeptech is hard-science breakthroughs from research. Human Deeptech is the same rigour applied to wisdom traditions, forgotten technologies, psychology, neuroscience, and the social sciences and humanities.
Two kinds of deep technology
Deeptech usually starts in a lab. A materials breakthrough out of KTH, a new way of growing food, a process that did not exist five years ago. It is built on the hard sciences, it takes years to develop, and it needs patient, specialised commercial work to reach the market.
Human Deeptech starts somewhere else: in what people have learned about attention, trust, meaning and change, over thousands of years and in the last decades of research. Contemplative practice, forgotten technologies, psychology, neuroscience, the social sciences and the humanities. It is knowledge just as deep, and it is mostly left outside the room when companies plan how to grow.
Why it belongs in the same conversation
A breakthrough does not reach people on its own. It reaches them through teams that trust each other, leaders who can hold uncertainty, and a story people want to be part of.
I have spent twenty years in commercial work and a decade taking science to market, and the pattern is steady. The technology is rarely what stalls. The human system around it is.
So I treat both as one job. It is a both-and: weaving wisdom and science, and bringing each to market with the same discipline.
What it covers
Wisdom traditions
Practices that have trained attention and judgment for centuries.
Forgotten technologies
Methods that worked and were set aside, worth a second look.
Psychology and neuroscience
What research shows about how people think, decide and change.
Social sciences and humanities
How groups, cultures and organisations actually behave.
How I work with it
Through 21 Dimensions, a curated network of transformative facilitators and a leadership development practice.
And in my commercial work, where I read the dynamics under the surface of an organisation: the real motivations, the actual commitment, and what is not being said in the room.
Who it is for
If you are commercialising science, as a founder, a fund or a family office, this is the side of the work that decides whether the technology gets used.
If you lead people through change, run a summit or a festival, or build a leadership programme, this is the knowledge that makes it last beyond the event.
If this sounds like your world, I would love to hear where you are today.
Questions
What is Human Deeptech?
Human Deeptech is the same rigour as deeptech, applied to wisdom traditions, forgotten technologies, psychology, neuroscience, and the social sciences and humanities.
How is it different from deeptech?
Deeptech is built on the hard sciences, usually from research at universities such as KTH, in fields like materials and agriculture. Human Deeptech covers knowledge about people: how they think, trust, decide and change. Both need the same commercial discipline to reach the market.
Is it about wellbeing?
No. It is about capability: how knowledge about people becomes trust, performance and leadership capacity inside organisations.
