The Human+AI Innovation Engine

From signal to scale: a working system.

The innovation engine

Signals, enablers, and labs.

Human+Tech Week connects signals, capital, and implementation labs to help move Human+AI innovation from idea toward deployment.

A possible pathway

From a defined need toward a pilot.

These stages show how participants can move an opportunity toward testing, funding, and implementation. Each initiative follows its own course.

  1. 01

    Empower demand centers

    Hospitals, cities, and employers define problems and criteria.

  2. 02

    Enable builders

    Innovators align to pre-qualified pilots and funding.

  3. 03

    Connect providers

    Technology providers access demand centers and developers.

  4. 04

    Engage capital

    C-suite and LP-style co-investors fund sprints, pilots, and implementations.

Capital can enter anywhere along the way.

The model in practice

A working session at Human+Tech Week: people at round tables with papers and laptops

The Whole Young Person Challenge.

A challenge defined with Breaking Barriers California. Founder Elizabeth Estes has spent more than 30 years connecting California's education, behavioral health, healthcare, social-service, workforce, and public systems. California has invested more than $42 billion in whole young person reform over the past five years. Each initiative created meaningful progress. The challenge now is getting those investments to work together so the systems around a young person can act as one. Technology leaders show how AI and emerging technology can help California's systems coordinate around the whole young person.
