Our curriculum is designed to supercharge your development and equip you for long-term success as you seek to have an impact on the problems that prevent people from realizing their potential.
The Abundance Institute is a mission-driven nonprofit dedicated to creating an environment for emerging technologies to germinate, develop, and thrive in order to perpetually expand widespread human prosperity and abundance.
The problem is that fear is costing us our future. While technology holds the power to transform our economy and lives, we often throttle technological breakthroughs before they can fulfill their life-changing potential.
Fueled by a mix of cultural anxieties, tech-wary regulators, and established players protecting their turf, this fear-based approach risks denying Americans an abundant future.
Our vision is to create an environment for emerging technologies to grow, develop, and thrive long before these technologies capture the public's attention giving us a first-mover advantage to shape the future in a positive way.
Location is negotiable, however, Washington, DC is preferred.
