What is 0_timeline?
Smartups are born at 0_timeline. This is where it all starts. Here you can start your own Smartup or work for other Smartups.
It's is a system change marketplace where scientist, engineers, designers and artists come together to collaborate on technologies that address the pressing challenges of our time.
They come together in Smartups. These are organizations that practice co-ownership, co-workmanship, and co-governance as a democratic collective intelligence over a technology. Smartups create technologies that help people progress on the UNITED NATIONS Sustainable Development Goals (SDG'S).
Smartup Zero is the first Smartup. It's an experiment in technology design. We are trying out a new route. If we succeed it can serve as a template technology for many other collective tech to come. It's what we'll need in our fight for a future for all.
