More than 750 teams. Thousands of members. A network built to push humanity forward.
Protocol Labs connects frontier research with the capital, programs, and shared infrastructure needed to turn breakthroughs into companies, products, and systems that scale.
Four decades of supporting frontier technologies and the people advancing them.

Our 40th Year Impact Report is live.
Forty years ago, Foresight was incorporated to take seriously the technologies that could transform the human condition, and back the people building them before anyone else would.
Here’s what this work looks like four decades in: foresight.org/impact2026

Thank you to the organizers and the wonderful EAAMO (Equity and Access in Algorithms, Mechanisms, and Optimization) community for a great few days in Munich.
We were proud to sponsor this year's conference. It was amazing to see so much interest in preserving human agency as algorithms shape more of our lives, often opaquely and from an early age, including through education and AI tutoring.
Of course this also directly connects to our Economies & Governance work at PL R&D: helping institutions listen at scale and giving people a say in the decisions that affect them.
Catch @BitRobotNetwork in the cities below this month!
1/ BitRobot is on the road this month between Austin → London.
We’re bringing robot demos, research and our ecosystem partners to the largest robot learning conference @corl_conf and @solana Breakpoint.
Here’s where to find us ↓

Great talk from @SeanEscola on how neural data can be used to align and accelerate AI systems! 👏
NeuroAI is heating up! 🔥🔥🔥

Ahead of Vision Weekend USA, our Foresight Fellows will join a leadership workshop run in partnership with the Fung Institute for Engineering Leadership.
@FungInstitute trains engineers and technologists to lead, combining technical depth with leadership, communication, and entrepreneurship.
This is a vision that maps closely to our own: to support the people advancing frontier science not only in the lab, but also how they lead and tell the story of their work.
We’re excited to be opening up this collaboration for our Foresight Fellows, and grateful to the Fung Institute for supporting them not just as researchers and builders, but as communicators and leaders.

From an initial question to a project developed in public, Ryan is showing how researchers can use @openlabsbio to find tools and work alongside AI agents and other contributors to move their ideas forward.

Awesome 🔥
Advances across neurotech (including today's chemogenetics!) have convinced me that powerful treatments for devastating brain conditions are possible.
The next frontier is making them massively scalable, without requiring 10-hour brain surgery.
Today, my team and I at @ARIA_research are announcing 10 teams we're backing with £50m to tackle this challenge.
A thread 🧵 on their exciting projects!

A relevant talk if you want to understand which industries are adopting Physical AI today!
I will be talking about physical AI at @WebSummit lisbon center stage next week. Anyone there next week interested in the same topics, please HMU!

Neurotech is where AI was in 2019. Attention is all you need. -@juanbenet
What if remote attestation could do for computational integrity what TLS did for secure communication?
The potential for stronger guarantees in the future could motivate a broader push for adoption.

Ramp is bringing stablecoins into everyday business finance.
With thousands of businesses already using stablecoins to pay vendors, Ramp is making it easier to hold, move, and spend money globally, all within the same financial platform.
Protected by Privy.
2,500+ businesses now use stablecoins to pay vendors on @tryramp. More than 70% of that volume moves outside banking hours.
Over the last few months, we’ve been working on making stablecoins as easy to use as any other way a business holds and moves money:
1/ Stablecoin Accounts: Hold stablecoins, earn rewards on your balance, and convert to and from USD with zero fees. Move money 24/7, pay vendors in 140+ countries in stablecoins, or convert and pay in 40+ currencies on local fiat rails.
2/ Bill Pay now supports stablecoins: Pay vendors worldwide in USDC, USDT, or USDG directly from Ramp Checking or a linked bank account. No need to hold stablecoins yourself.
3/ One system for all of your money: We have heard loud and clear from customers that they don’t want to use one system for fiat and another for stablecoins, so we’ve built the workflows and accounting sync for both in the same system.
4/ Agents are next: We're in beta with USDC wallets that let agents make x402 payments, with spend controls and ledgering built into Ramp.
5/ New primitives: We’re working with @OpenStandard on OUSD and with payment providers to open up even more assets and corridors, as well as new ways to earn more rewards on your stablecoin balance.
Job’s not finished. What should we build next?
An incredible milestone for @ScienceCorp_ and the future of vision restoration.

Computer vision and connectomics jobs at mindspan just dropped. mindspan.org/jobs Build deep learning models for the one of the world's largest segmentation jobs. Build great and robust pipelines. Annotate or proofread. Mindspan is hiring.
Exciting launch from PL Network team @BitRobotNetwork!
@RoboColosseum is bringing robotics testing into real-world environments to push the boundaries of what today’s models can do.
Today, we’re launching @RoboColosseum with @huggingface, @NUSingapore MAGIC Lab and @eaic_sg.
BitRobot is bringing robot fleets, operators and real-world environments together to evaluate policies across tasks, embodiments and settings.
Let’s find out what today’s models can actually do.

Privacy and sovereignty are intertwined. As data becomes more valuable, users and builders will demand control over its release. The future of privacy-first architectures starts with making privacy the default.

The next major shift in human-computer interaction is closer than we think.
Protocol Labs founder @juanbenet argues brain-computer interfaces are where AI was in 2019, before ChatGPT changed everything:
"In 2010, 2011, I was going around saying AGI is coming sometime in the next 10, 20 years. People would laugh you out of rooms. Now I'm seeing those exact same people being like, oh, AGI is here."
"AI was inflecting in 2018, 2019, way before the ChatGPT moment. That's where BCI is today. The core companies have been formed, they've gotten it into patients, some are entering market and turning on revenue."
"Today you can say people will use brain computer interfaces to interact with their computers, and people still say that's crazy. I’m like, let's just count the number of years until we get there."
