== Why a Wiki? ==
Wikipedia has proven that wikis are a scalable way to build a high-quality encyclopedic knowledge base that can be effectively shared, for free, as a common good. The Deep Tech Wiki strives to emulate that model to build a trusted and networked knowledge repository.

The Deep Tech Wiki strives to emulate that model to build a Deep Tech knowledge commons that is both trusted and useful to the community.


In adopting this model, the administrative team serves two sets of "customers": readers and contributors. Each and every contributor is deeply valued by the administrative team and our primary focus will always be to support those who invest their time, insight, and expertise to build this shared resource and to support the Deep Tech community.
