Imagine, Engineer, Build a Better World
 

MIND|CONSTRUCT is a Deep-Tech company. We apply deep scientific research, broad technological experience, and our unparalleled knowledge and experience in the research and development of real Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), to the pursuit of building a better world for everyone.

To be able to build, one needs to be able to imagine first. Thereafter, you need to be able to engineer your vision, and finally, it has to be built on top of this engineering. Here at MIND|CONSTRUCT we encompass not only the scientific and technological competences, but we can also dream, we can imagine a future and work to make it happen.

Over a decade ago, our founder Hans Peter Willems set out to achieve what most people deemed impossible. Now, the company that represents his technology, works with the same ambition to advance science and technology for all of humanity.

 

 

Real functional Artificial General Intelligence represents incredible powerful technology. To secure this power to be used in the right way needs great stewardship that is grounded in a solid moral foundation. We call this 'Radical Integrity', pointing at a level of integrity that is beyond any possibility of being corrupted.

As the first company to have cracked the code of human knowledge acquisition and understanding, we understand what this 'radical integrity' entails. For that reason, we also know what it means to be the stewards of this technology. We don't take this lightly, and have proudly accepted this task.

We are eager to explore what the future will bring to us, and we want to take you and the rest of the world with us on that journey.

MODULE 1.1
Meet The Founder
 

At the age of seventeen, Hans Peter got his hands on his first home-computer, a Sony MSX-2, and almost immediately began studying Software Engineering and various programming languages. His first program was a fairly complete CAD-program for electric schematics. All written in MSX-Basic and fitting in a whopping 28 Kilobytes of memory.

He started his first software company in 1990, mainly aimed at developing very specific custom enterprise applications, but also delivering LAN and Cybersecurity solutions to clients. He was an early adopter of Computer-Aided Software Engineering (CASE). Hans Peter has been a serial entrepreneur since that first company.

So far, Hans Peter has developed applications in more than 20 programming languages, spanning more than a million lines of code (not counting the millions of LOC, generated by his code-generator).

 

Hans Peter has always been interested in building some form of intelligence into software. Firstly, this resulted in the development of his first code generator, capable of generating completely usable applications from a basic data model. This culminated in what is now the Codedness Development Platform, a fully web-based development environment that combines Model-Driven Design & Development with the possibilities of DevOps. This is the technology that now drives the development and maintenance of the ASTRID-system.

When Hans Peter started the ASTRID project, many people called it ambitious, a clear euphemism for 'completely crazy'. After a little more than a decade, it is now clear that his ambition was not unfounded, as the ASTRID system performs exactly, and in certain aspects even better, as foreseen by Hans Peter.

 

Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.

Steve Jobs.

CEO/CTO & Chief Scientist

Besides being the founder and CEO/CTO, Hans Peter is the leading scientist and developer behind the ASTRID Cognitive Architecture.

He brings four decades of IT-experience, and more than fifteen years in AI/AGI-research, to the project.


Science Validation

Gerard joined the team shortly after the start of the company. He contributes from the perspective of his own (published) research on 'The Operator Theory', a foundational model for Evolution.

Gerard is mainly responsible for scientific assessments and validation.


Peter van der Mynsbrugge

Esther Versteege

Tech-infrastructure

Peter worked together with Hans Peter on many projects before, going back more than fifteen years now. He is specialised in Virtualization, Network Intrusion Prevention, and High-speed networking.

Peter is responsible for the development and management of our internal compute infrastructure.


Public Relations

Esther has been with the company from the start as a core-team member.

With her 20+ years of experience in management-support and business communications, she is responsible for Market Research and Public Relations development.

MIND|CONSTRUCT Global
 

Founded and incorporated in The Netherlands, MIND|CONSTRUCT is now moving to a more Global presence. To be able to support scientific and technological partnerships with the relevant players in the Robotics and Autonomous Applications domains, we need to be in proximity to our current and future partners. As the saying goes: “The three most important things for a business are … location, location, location”.

We are currently preparing to move the Company Headquarters to the United States of America. We are working hard to secure funding for this significant step, and we welcome any business inquiries that might help us to reach this milestone.

If you are a Technology Developer, AI Manufacturer, Systems Integrator or Research Facility that wants to work with us, don't hesitate to contact us. We are excited to be working with you.
