About Will Weisman

Will Weisman is a venture capital investor at KittyHawk Ventures who brings a unique perspective shaped by seven years as Executive Director of Summits at Singularity University, where he curated global conversations on exponential technologies and interviewed visionary founders and futurists like Ray Kurzweil and Naveen Jain.

Will Weisman's Interests

What they've been talking about across their social media accounts
  • A passion for frontier technology and science-fiction-like innovations that solve massive physical problems. Shows strong enthusiasm for projects pushing boundaries, such as Colossal Biosciences working to de-extinct the Dire Wolf or Jetti Resources unlocking value in copper waste piles through catalytic leaching.
  • Deep interest in humanoid robotics and automation that physically changes how people live and move. Frequently praises advances in autonomous hardware, expressing excitement about having a robot in his home after visiting 1xRobotics, and highlighting the speed of Beltways' moving walkways for public spaces.
  • A focus on the emerging space economy and logistics. Actively supports companies building infrastructure beyond Earth, such as Outpost developing return vehicles for hypersonic testing and Lonestar Data launching a private mission to store data on the moon.
  • Interest in the intersection of blockchain, real-world assets, and decentralized finance. Highlights the utility of tokenization for asset management, evidenced by his support for Jiritsu Network's approach to real-world asset tokenization and Figure Markets' vision for DeFi.
  • A clearly defined investment thesis centered on non-consensus, early-stage conviction. Explicitly states a preference for backing the overlooked or unexpected, noting that he looks for companies that others might consider risky but actually possess a competitive edge because they are building the future before it becomes obvious.
  • Involvement in future-forward communities focused on abundance and exponential health tech. Often shares insights from events like Abundance360 and Exponential Medicine, referencing interactions with thought leaders like Peter Diamandis regarding longevity and systemic change.
