A-Zero was founded in the summer of 2025 with one conviction: the world’s toughest problems won’t be solved by waiting.
This first year is about building a solid foundation for lasting impact. We are establishing our identity as a foundation, setting clear priorities, and testing bold initiatives that demonstrate our commitment to action over words. From day one, our focus is on creating the conditions where ideas can move from vision to execution, and where collaboration produces tangible results.
At the core is a clear mission: to take responsibility where others hesitate and to prove that change begins by doing. Our goals define the areas where we believe our contribution can matter most, and they serve as a compass for every step forward. They are not aspirations on paper but commitments that guide our projects, partnerships, and impact in 2025 and beyond.
The starting point
Goals that guide our energy, shape our projects, and keep us focused on impact.
Building inclusive communities
Because a society is stronger when everyone has a seat at the table. We want to break down barriers of participation so that people aren’t just included, but also actively shaping the world they live in.
Strengthening resilience
Because people and systems need to withstand shocks, not break under them. We believe resilience is built through fairness, mental well-being, and community support — things you can’t afford to ignore when the pressure is rising.
Sparking innovation
Because today’s problems won’t be solved with yesterday’s answers. We push for bold ideas and shared knowledge, so learning doesn’t stay in books or labs but becomes real-world solutions with impact.
Driving sustainability
Because we can’t build a future on resources we’re burning through. True progress means choices that balance people, technology, and the planet — not one at the expense of the other.
Connecting worlds
Because breakthroughs happen when unexpected people meet. We bring together generations, disciplines, and communities to create solutions no one could reach on their own.
Inspiring action
Because awareness means nothing without responsibility and follow-through. We want people to move beyond watching problems pile up and instead step up to create the change they want to see.
In the upcoming year…
we will build a community platform to connect local people.
Because communities are strongest when people actually know each other. In a world that is becoming more digital and polarized, face-to-face contact and local ties are more important than ever. By creating a platform for connection across backgrounds, generations, and perspectives, we want to strengthen resilience, encourage skill-sharing, and ensure the circulation of knowledge and support within the community instead of getting lost. Building this platform is our way of putting inclusion and participation into practice.
we will develop tools that help industries, researchers and governments in AI innovation.
Because AI is shaping the future — for better or worse. We believe it must be developed responsibly, transparently, and with people at the center. That’s why we are working on tools that democratize AI innovation and make it accessible beyond big tech. By supporting industries, researchers, and governments with practical, human-focused tools, we aim to ensure that AI strengthens communities, supports humanity, and serves as a force for positive impact rather than division.
we will support academics to turn high-impact ideas into tangible innovations.
Because too many brilliant ideas never leave the lab. We believe research has the power to transform lives, but only if it can scale into the real world. By connecting academics with entrepreneurs, industry, and communities, we help bridge that gap. Our multidisciplinary approach focuses on holistic solutions that improve quality of life, create jobs, and multiply positive effects. We want to make sure research doesn’t just stay on paper, but gets validated, applied, and felt where it matters most.
we will come into contact with you!
Because innovation doesn’t happen in isolation. The best ideas are often unexpected, and they come from people who see problems up close and dare to imagine solutions. That’s why we want to hear from you — whether you’re carrying a spark of an idea, facing a challenge you want to tackle, or simply curious to get involved. A-Zero is built on collaboration and ownership, and your voice is part of that. Together, we can shape projects that actually matter.
