Resilience Holdings
We’re building today for the world of tomorrow.
Human Agency Resilience Holdings is a portfolio of essential service businesses that harness the transformative power of AI alongside the expertise and judgement of skilled humans. We buy exceptional companies with exceptional people, and we work alongside each team to prepare them for the challenges and opportunities the future will bring.
We are a team of operators, engineers, investors, designers, growth hackers, and entrepreneurs. We’ve spent a decade forward-deployed in leading businesses, helping them to adopt new technologies, grow into new markets, launch category-defining products, and tell their stories to the world.
In the era of AI, we are pro-human.
We believe technology, when intentionally designed, enhances human agency. We see the future of work as one in which people are:
- Free from the tedium and alienation of paper-pushing.
- Free to focus on the work that requires taste, trust, judgement, presence, and humanity.
We’re working to make this vision a reality, one resilient business at a time.
“These are problems we can solve. And part of the power of conferences like this is to insist on human agency, to not give in to hopelessness…”
“…all forces work through human agency.”
“We know that the global dilemma of squalor amid splendour is a creature of human agency, and that it can be reversed by human agency.”
“If we get this right, AI will not replace human agency. It will amplify it.”
“Human and social facts… are not less, but more, modifiable than mechanical and chemical facts; human agency, therefore, has still greater power over them.”
“We want AI to create more value, more responsibly… But above all, we want AI with human agency.”
“…history is a realm of human freedom and human agency…”
“There is nothing inevitable about conflict… Freedom and human rights are… amenable to human agency of any colour or creed.”
“…help ensure that AI is used in a way that preserves human agency.”
“…the freedom-centered view captures the constructive role of free human agency as an engine of change.”
“Those processes of human agency advance most happily to their consummation, which most faithfully resemble the operations of the natural world.”
“…we still have the capacity for human agency, to make good choices, to connect with each other as humans…”
“…the battle for human agency. Algorithms that amplify our worst impulses… these aren’t inevitable. They’re choices. We can choose different values.”
“The triumphs of experimental science and observations aided by new instruments were an illustration of human agency in nature.”
“Technology must be our servant — not our master. It must promote human rights, human dignity and human agency.”
“…people are contributors to their life circumstances, not just products of them. Social cognitive theory rejects a duality between human agency and social structure.”
“Each of us, in our own time and place, can offer our suffering as a drop in the bucket of human agency that reshapes the course of history.”
“Human rights encapsulate an ancient wisdom… They are ultimately about human agency, human dignity and our place in the ecosystem of the Earth.”
“…free and sustainable human agency emerges as a generally effectual engine of development.”
“…let us build innovative and inclusive global governance tools for AI — with human rights, human dignity and human agency front and centre.”
