🧠 Personalized Mental Wellness with - AWEAR👂🏻

​AWEAR is pioneering a stylish ear-cuff wearable for everyday use that empowers individuals to take control of their mental well-being. Our AI coach maps brainwaves to emotions, providing immediate neurofeedback for emotional self-regulation and stress management. We think of it as the “Oura for mental wellness”. Our vision is to enable continuous, real-world monitoring of brain activity for consumers, businesses, and researchers, unlocking insights into the mind beyond the lab or clinic.

​Antonio and Ale have 40+ years of combined experience in DSP, AI, hardware, software, and digital health, with over 250 patents issued worldwide. We’ve built a strong team of engineers and experts in computational neuroscience and psychophysiology to bring our vision to life.

​What is CTC? We are a multidisciplinary group of innovators from neuroscience, Brain Computer Interface (BCI), Human Computer Interaction design (HCI), psychotherapy, arts, plant medicine, somatic healing, and other ancient wisdom practices interested in building a holistic Wellbeing Economy that's regenerative, life-sustaining, and positive sum. There are currently about ~90 of us physically located around the world. Across academic, industry, and startup contexts. We gather weekly in person in San Francisco.

Together, we explore shared concerns and curiosities about the impact of a new wave of emerging technologies on human well-being: from AI to next-gen biosensors (such as BCI), and others. We aim to channel technology's power to heal our connections to Self, Each other, and the Planet.

We advocate for systems change - positive futures where Technology and Capital support human and planetary flourishing. Not the other way around. Conscious tech means:

​​​​​​​1. Technology that helps to expand individual and collective consciousness towards mindful love and compassion (e.g. mental health tech, tech for wisdom) and abundance.

​​​​​​​2. Technology that's crafted with mindful conscious intentions and processes (e.g. calm tech, ambient computing) and a truly life-centric orientation, minding the complex systemic dynamics that a product and service reside in.

Our 4 pillars of action are:
1. Community Building
2. Translational Research
3. Innovator Support
4. Product Incubation
