Episode notes

What happens when innovation moves faster than wisdom? Neuroscientist turned deep-tech entrepreneur, Ewelina Kurtys, takes us inside one of the most ambitious frontiers in technology: BIOCOMPUTING. Ewelina works at the intersection of neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and entrepreneurship, helping translate lab breakthroughs into real-world systems. We explore what it actually means to build computers from living neurons, why the human brain remains unmatched by silicon, and how future computing could become radically more energy efficient. This conversation goes beyond technology. We discuss why many scientific breakthroughs fail to scale, the psychological shift required to move from academia into entrepreneurship, and the responsibility leaders carry when building systems that affect society at scale. If you are a founder, operator, or executive building in uncertainty, this episode will challenge how you think about progress, trust, and long-term innovation.
