Uncovering breakthrough pathways in the creation of synthetic proteins, McClure and his talented team of scientists are rethinking the very concept of consciousness by exploring functionalities that are identical to natural biology.
Kunal Sinha — Founder, Valor
Redefining the separation and refinement of critical minerals, Kunal and his company are developing a technology platform that isolates high-purity metals at a fraction of traditional cost, speed, and environmental impact.
With significant disruption needed to bring production and processing back to the West, Kunal explains why critical minerals — not just energy — is the bottleneck for smarter manufacturing.
Packy McCormick — Founder, Not Boring
An author-strategist-investor, Packy is the creator of the “Not Boring” newsletter, providing in-depth analyses of the tech landscape for over 200k subscribers every week.
Investigating stories of the most ambitious and complex startups, Packy offers a glimpse into the future of deep tech, where ideas move from innovation to implementation to impact.

Micheál Ganley — CEO, Bethlehem Steel
How does the supply of steel, metals, and industrial capacity feed into the world’s innovation?
The need to invest in rapidly scaling, next-generation materials is paramount, Ganley explains, outlining why the time is now to reinvigorate the American steel industry —feeding decades of manufacturing capabilities to come.
