The act of interpretation

Hermeneia

Hermeneia — Greek: interpretation. The act of carrying meaning from one language into another so that it survives the crossing.

Hermenica’s crossing mark

Two paths cross in our mark: what leaves the lab, and what arrives in the world.

A discovery in a laboratory and a company in a market are the same thing in two languages. Most of what venture loses, it loses in translation — between the scientist and the buyer, between one discipline and its neighbour, between a local ecosystem and global capital.

We are neither specialists nor generalists. We are interpreters.
  1. 01

    Science → Market

    A result becomes a product only when someone can say it in the buyer's language.

  2. 02

    Field → Field

    The next instrument in biology is usually an idea that already worked in compute.

  3. 03

    Local → Global

    A company built in one hub is priced there. Built across three, it is priced by the world.

Translation is not a metaphor here. It is the work: an introduction that becomes a research team, a reference from someone with a reason to be candid, a market opened by a single call.
