Latimer FutureWorks connects the Latimer Fellows and Latimer Foundation ecosystem with the AI Labs FutureWorks model. It connects talented people with the technology, engineering, venture-building support, and commercial opportunities needed to turn an idea into a product or company.
The model aligns Fellows with opportunities to become founders, co-founders, operators, and product collaborators. Their expertise, relationships, names, and brands can also help a venture find its audience and establish a route to market, with each person’s participation and rights defined together.
The FutureWorks foundation, shaped around this organization’s people and opportunities.

An illustrative starting point
A Fellow identifies a problem through their field or community. FutureWorks helps evaluate relevant IP and existing technologies, builds a prototype with the Fellow and an engineering team, and tests it with intended users. The work can develop into a product collaboration or a new venture with a defined founding role and a route to market.
The aim is a connected ecosystem where talent can help originate the opportunity, build the solution, and participate in bringing it to market.
Fellows contribute expertise, ideas, leadership, relationships, and a commitment to creating opportunity. AI Laboratories contributes the product, engineering, licensing, and commercialization capabilities that help translate those strengths into action.
Identify the Fellow, the opportunity, and the role. Then agree the development scope, venture pathway, participation terms, and measures of progress.
