The Deep Tech Wiki exists to collect, map, and share knowlege about the global Deep Tech ecosystem~~. We believe this is an important part of enabling Deep Tech's greater purpose of equitable and effective progress towards solving the world's most significant scientific and engineering challenges~~.

== Our Purpose ==

The Deep Tech Wiki exists to collect, map, and share knowlege about the global Deep Tech ecosystem.

The discovery of future knowledge is a common good and a treasure we owe to future generations. The challenge of today's generation is to keep the pathways to discovery open.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Hess |first=Charlotte |title=Understanding Knowledge as a Commons: From Theory to Practice |isbn=0262083574}}</ref>

This work is essential to enabling Deep Tech's greater purpose of equitable and effective progress towards solving the world's most significant scientific and engineering challenges.

== 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, but building a trusted and networked knowledge repository rather than an encyclopedia.
