Key Achievements & Impact

My Dreams & Vision

1
Cure chronic diseases and build a new healthcare system
Chronic diseases affect about 75% of the global population, while autoimmune diseases affect about 10% globally.
Revolutionizing healthcare delivery through AI technology, making quality care and affordable medications globally accessible to everyone.
2
Empower 1 billion people for global financial inclusion
Globally, 1.4 billion people are unbanked, meaning they lack access to a bank account or formal financial services.
Creating new financial systems that serve the unbanked and underbanked and everyone else, ensuring economic freedom and human dignity.
3
Build network states with transparent lean governments
Government inefficiency wastes up to $3.25 trillion annually globally (25% of government spending worldwide).
Establishing a new form of efficient governance that transcends traditional borders through technology and online communities.
4
Make Open Source the New Primary Industry Standard
Organizations spend on average 3.5 times more on proprietary software than Open Source software. Open source can provide up to 60% cost savings for enterprises.
Transforming every industry to prioritize Open Source development, knowledge sharing, and collaboration as the standard approach.
5
Help Europe become a leading space superpower
Without action, Europe risks becoming a permanent spectator in the new space race. It has already fallen behind the United States, China, Russia and 4 other countries.
Advancing European aerospace and rocketry capabilities and establishing new leadership in the sustainable space economy and maybe planet colonization.
6
Support 100 people to build 100 unicorn companies
Across the OECD, there are more than 34 million "missing" entrepreneurs that are needed for innovation and economic growth, highlighting persistent gaps in inclusive support.
Empowering the next generation of entrepreneurs by mentoring and investing to create massive value and impact across all industries.
