This series of blog posts starts off a new direction for an organisation that went from a going concern… to a passion project, and the realisation that the name outlived its purpose.

adappt’s heritage is in its name. Read all parts to this series: In part one, we reviewed what was adappt.io, from 2015 to 2024.

adaptive-emergent now has a more focussed direction. Part one of this series looked at the history from 2015 to 2021; Part two explained why adappt.

New website is live! In August 2024 the former adappt.io was renamed to adaptive-emergent.com to narrow the scope from web3 distributed networks to biomimetic ones (read the three part series on this starting here).

From commercial HVAC to coordinated “swarm intelligence” Encycle is an energy-technology company with origins in Toronto, developing software that helps buildings use less energy and respond more flexibly to the power grid.

From Sheffield research to “natural intelligence” Opteran Technologies (registered in the UK as Opteran Technologies Limited) is a spin-out from University of Sheffield that formally incorporated in March 2020.

At adaptive-emergent, we are looking for simple behaviours in nature that add up to quite complex ones. The resulting model can be used to massively scale basic business rules into a whole that is more than the sum of its parts.
