Bruce Damer has developed software sold in 120 countries, created and led a non-profit to promote the first virtual worlds and avatar environments on the Internet, founded a for-profit company which introduced 3D design simulation to NASA, co-created spacecraft to visit and mine asteroids, and co-authored a major new hypothesis for how life began on Earth four billion years ago.

He has recently become a public advocate for the research and use of psychedelics together with other practices to prepare minds to generate genius-class solutions in science, engineering and leadership. He believes that we need to supercharge the best intellects to meet the challenges humanity now faces, and emerge into a long and brilliant future.
