About us

SoTA is a non-profit launched in 2024 with the mission of promoting techno-optimism and fostering technoscientific progress across the UK.

We are cultivating a permanent, cross-disciplinary community of promising scientists, researchers, engineers, and technologists who believe that the best way to predict is to create. We focus on promise and potential, rather than prestige and credentials.

Our founding team met through the Polaris Fellowship run by Arnaud Schenk and Entrepreneur First in 2023.
