Inventing Profitable Fusion Reactors
Why can we vacation to Alaska but not to Mars? Why do we mine salt but not asteroids?
Because we do not yet have the knowledge required to make machines that make it profitable to do so.
JuliaPIC aims to decrease the price of acquiring new knowledge, creating and validating prototypes, by using simulations.
What motivates us? Professor Deutsch captured the idea brilliantly:
"If something is permitted by the laws of physics, then the only thing that can prevent it from being technologically possible is not knowing how."
- David Deutsch, The Beginning of Infinity
Our simulations use the laws of physics to create virtual universes, just like the Matrix, and we design advanced prototypes inside that virtual universe.
This is where we innovate on fusion reactor designs.

Your Strategic Partner
Physics Consultation
Simulations are used to increase knowledge about specific physical events. Our employees have thousands of simulations in the minds already, and that's knowledge we'll use to help you on your project.
Running Simulations
Measure twice, cut once. We'll hand over the data and the source code, so your engineering team can take our successfully ran simulation and run as many variations as they want. This dramatically decreases engineering labor costs; just ask your engineers.
We Buy Experimental Data
The domain where simulation can operate on it's own has expanded by orders of magnitude over the last couple decades. There's many domains where experimental data is simply no longer needed. But, if you have specific data sets that we do need, we'll be eager to buy that from you.
Physics Business Consulting
Hiring, company strategy, engineering management and high level business approaches are all difficult with exotic engineering programs. We operate in this quixotic and specialized field, and we'll help you do so too.
Friendly, crazy, ambitious. Worked as a Computational Nuclear Engineer at General Fusion for seven years; dropped out of a PhD in Nuclear Engineering from Purdue University to do so. Started and operating three companies, one of which is a hedge fund.
