Who am I?

Hi, I am Abhijeet! My professional life has followed this trajectory:

engineer —> scientist —> founder —> investor?

Over the last 14 years, I have worked on a gamut of technologies at the intersections of physics, biology, material sciences and engineering. Some of them became companies, others remained as scientific publications. Something else is in the research pot, slow cooking right now.

What is 10 Years From Now?

I love technologies that sound like science fiction. In the time that I have spent dabbling in frontier technologies, I have had the privilege of knowing and observing brilliant people whose work will shape our lives in the years to come. Yet, I had the uneasy feeling that no one outside my bubble of scientists and engineers knew about them or their work. I wanted more people to know how the boundaries of possibility are being dented and breached in places.

This is a free newsletter where you will learn about these technologies, the problems they are solving and the people involved in these efforts.

Why should you read it?

We live in a world of information overload. In a world where we are constantly bombarded with “breaking news”, we can no longer track what really is. We have been primed to tune in only when things are sensational and tune out immediately if it is not. Yet, the most exciting stuff happens when you haven’t been paying attention. Far away from clickbait, slowly and in relative obscurity from the hype machine.

I aim to think deeper and surface insights that make you question hype, in an attempt to better understand what is truly happening.

If you could develop a sense of what is going to be important in the future, what would you change in the present?

Who is it for?

Anyone who is enamored by science fiction but doesn’t know what is real and what is not.
