To solve existential brain challenges spanning neurology, mental health, education, workforce development, and neuroscience—we need a fresh approach to technologies and investing. We need a new investment opportunity: Brain Capital.

Human societies continue to be plagued by

, from mental health disorders and dementia to learning disabilities, the impact of long COVID, and disparities in educational health care access.

Additionally, some of the most persistent social issues—homelessness, crime, death by despair—will be impossible to solve without attention to the root causes and address the treatment and support of individuals with brain disorders and vulnerabilities. If these brain health maladies are not definitively addressed, human communities will have a difficult

 time sustaining themselves both economically and socially

At the same time, deeply comprehending the human brain will make new achievements possible, with brains that thrive from better understanding mental processes such as creativity, innovation, leadership, and entrepreneurship.

We need new ways to move the needle on these unprecedented challenges and opportunities. We need a cross-disciplinary, cross-functional, optimized approach to innovation with a new type of executive, new investment, and new governance.

Figure 1: Brain Capital Technology Overview

In the following article, we put forward our case forBrain Capital as a new investment category placing a premium on technological health care innovations that improve brain health and skills. We define Brain Capital Innovation as diverse neuroscience-inspired technologies addressing the confluence of mental health, neurology, education, workforce development, and 

—including resilience, wisdom, and creativity (

 Brain Capital constitutes a promising new opportunity within the impact investment category, also known as environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing.

Global brain challenges are worsening at a time when our economies and societies are becoming more turbulent. Dependence upon personal technologies is accelerating, with citizens struggling to keep up with unlimited access to massive amounts of information and data, creating increased stress and anxiety. There also have been positive developments, including increasing dependence on knowledge-intensive economic activity, 

 increasing attention to workplace mental health,10 a 

of venture capital activity driving innovation,

 and a higher number of unicorns (companies valued at over USD $1 billion).

 There are new, large-scale public-private partnerships aimed at tackling global mental health (

). Taken together, it can be argued that we are already living in a 

—a neuroscience-inspired, knowledge economy.

Still, there are substantial limitations in our current system of innovation and investing to tackle these brain challenges.

 Approaches to screening, diagnosis, and treatment of mental health disorders are not optimized, compromising our ability to maximize societal brain health and brain skills. Scalable, technological solutions to successfully manage these issues have remained mostly 

—higher education, business, the psychiatry profession, and tech and neurology innovators often do not communicate or collaborate beyond their own disciplines.

While we can applaud emerging evidence-based digital health solutions as scalable, and often more equitable, these technological solutions are mostly at a population level, not personalized enough, and therefore not able to adequately address the diverse and complex nature of individual needs—a precondition to achieve improved outcomes and added value.

personalized and biologically inspired technologies

 struggle to be consistently validated and integrated into clinical workflows and traditional reimbursement models.

 Our understanding of the fundamental neuroscience of these issues needs further advancement, but it is clear that brain disorders have many 

Investment approaches such as the 2/20 general VC model

 can promote undue revenue pressures, create hype cycles that often lead to market failures

 and result in poor governance—especially given that investors cannot always clearly understand or keep pace with the ideas being pursued by technical founders.

 A majority of investments still favor expensive, reimbursed products and services over cost-efficiencies and value-based care. These governance approaches often create 

, which is rife for abuse and mismanagement.

But there are silver linings for addressing these global brain challenges.

Frontier neuroscience technologies—spanning omics, digital therapeutics, artificial intelligence, and devices—aim to improve access, screening, prevention, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Concurrently, there is an increasing convergence of these types of solutions as experts, systems, and payors attempt to simplify workflows and minimize fragmentation of new products and services (

A number of boutique and thematic venture funds have arrived to help with brain challenges—the

 builds prescription digital therapeutics (PDTs) to provide better outcomes for patients, smarter engagement and tracking tools for clinicians, and cost-effective solutions for payers. Pear’s lead product, reSET, for the treatment of substance use disorder, was the first PDT to receive market authorization from the FDA to treat disease. Pear’s second product, reSET-O, for the treatment of opioid use disorder, was the first PDT to receive Breakthrough Designation. Pear’s third product Somryst® for the treatment of chronic insomnia, was the first PDT submitted through the FDA’s traditional 510(k) pathway while simultaneously reviewed through FDA’s Software Precertification Pilot Program.

 is a digital health company aiming to help children reach their full potential by providing engaging training software clinically proven to improve core cognitive performance. Hence, this has value in education and mental health fields. TALi has been developed and validated through a series of pilot studies including randomized controlled trials for acquired brain injury (ABI) and attention in primary school classrooms.

 builds clinically validated cognitive therapeutics, assessments, and diagnostics that look and feel like video games. The company built EndeavorRx, a prescription digital therapeutic video game to help children aged 8 to 12 with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and the first game-based therapeutic to get FDA approval. This company has an impact in the mental health, neuroscience, and education realms. Akili has recently entered into a 

 to extend its offerings for early childhood attention impairments.

 game can be employed to improve brain function and teach individuals about logical fallacies and critical thinking in the context of climate change. In the game, players must identify the form of science denialism that matches the possible arguments of a climate denialist, such as “How can models predict climate 100 years out when they can’t get the forecast right next week?” and “Climate models are imperfect so they can’t be trusted.” Overcoming cognitive biases and improving brain function will be key to equipping us to prevent climate change, which conversely will help prevent significant harm to brain health.

 has the potential to introduce a paradigm shift to our economic understanding and agency in brain health. By placing a premium on brain health and skills in the economy, Brain Capital technology can be defined as neuroscience-inspired technologies that integrate and optimize for mental health, 

 (including resilience, wisdom, and creativity).

 As an example of complex issues at the confluence of multiple fields, depression is not just a mental disorder—it also constitutes a major risk factor for absenteeism and presenteeism at work, dementia, worsening comorbidities, poor education attainment, cognitive dysfunction, sleep dysregulation, and economic hardship. Severe mental illness drives social injustice syndromes such as homelessness, transgenerational disadvantage, poverty, and crime. Similarly, 

 predisposes to poor educational attainment, reduction in occupational capacity, neurological dysfunction, depression, and dementia, often with transgenerational impacts.

 Later on in neurodegenerative disorders, like Alzheimer disease, Parkinson disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke, and epilepsy, after the onset of the disease, researchers see some similarities, which are probably the result of the neurodegeneration rather than the causes for these disorders. These include problems with speech, gait and unsteadiness, and motor movements in general.

At a societal level, the high prevalence and lasting burden of such issues result in a major strain on economic capacity, leading the World Health Organization, the World Economic Forum, and Harvard Medical School to declare investment in this area an economic “

 Chronic noncommunicable diseases—including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity—are risk factors for depression, anxiety, cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs), and dementia. Vice versa, mental health disorders such as depression predispose to cardiometabolic disorders. Brain Capital technology has the potential to simultaneously address and mitigate these multisystemic, interdependent, and complex issues. This technology can save the system a fortune in the long run while significantly reducing human suffering—a huge win-win.

Brain Capital technology can also leverage a human-centered approach toward solution development. In other words, Brain Capital technology can utilize a “hybrid” approach that combines the best of technology with the best of human capabilities. For example, many existing Brain Capital technologies have started to combine human coaches with otherwise automated delivery of brain health interventions.

 This approach increases the viability of Brain Capital technologies in numerous ways. It enables a global cohort of advocates for brain health (eg, the coaches and community health workers) to be empowered to deliver brain health advice with both a human touch and advanced technology.

Moreover, responsible innovation and regulation of technology are important guarantors of brain health. While loneliness and lack of purpose remain large sources of poor brain health amplified by the increasingly exploitive uses of technology, Brain Capital technologies that integrate value-driven technology development and a human-centered approach might minimize these issues. Additionally, as many technologies generate large communities of users, the Brain Capital technology approach can be harnessed to accelerate, enrich, and ground these communities in human-centered values. As another example, brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) fuse human capabilities with technology, spanning from health applications (such as managing stroke and movement disorders) to optimizing human performance (such as increasing empathy).

Select examples of promising Convergent Brain Capital startups are outlined in 

, robust operational, governance, and investment innovations will be required to sustain the brain health technology sector.

 We need to bring diverse stakeholders together to form a common language and align on the main value drivers and strategic frameworks as this emerging industry evolves.

There is the opportunity and potential to address the massive underutilization of Brain Capital, especially from older people and meaningfully involve citizens in debate and dialogue about what is needed and possible to support Brain Capital.

To ensure greater replicability of brain research and promote evidence-based approaches translations of the science to benefit humanity, a major push toward standardization for data sharing, curation, and federation is needed. Brain Capital technologies require this foundational infrastructure to be successful. Further, larger validation and real-world studies will be needed to generate critical and dependable foundational data. Philanthropy, health systems, and venture capital must recognize and support this.

On the private investment level, existing ESG approaches have driven positive business and societal value; however, they are incomplete. 

Incorporating Brain Capital into ESG frameworks

—ie, shifting to “B-ESG”—would provide a more comprehensive, robust approach to create long-term positive impacts for the economy, the environment, and all stakeholders.

Brain Capital is an exemplar of the increasing importance of the impact investing space, and a clear sign of the evolution and expansion of ESG. Concurrently, the changing political and social atmosphere has brought more institutional investor interest to ESG: investment firms, foundations, and family offices are increasingly dedicating significant portions of their portfolios to “impact” investments.

Historically, ESG choices have been slim, and scalability was considered nearly impossible. Conversely, addressing the interdisciplinary, multisectoral nature of mental, neurologic, and substance use (MNS) disorders and the fostering of brain performance would make such investing inherently broader and more scalable.

The fact that impact investments and ESG are still in the early stages of becoming mainstream investment areas, means the use of early-stage startups is also the path with the most upside and potentially lucrative returns for investors. As such, investors can take a relatively inexpensive, large position in companies while assuming a more active role in their development and governance. Likewise, accelerators can engage as early movers to provide a boost to the growth and ultimate success of brain tech companies.

Channeling even a small percentage of the existing 

 into Brain Capital innovations and solutions as part of a B-ESG is expected to result in an unprecedented impact.

 A B-ESG approach would also allow us to leverage the financial markets to develop and scale Brain Capital technologies and reduce brain challenges. Finally, a B-ESG approach would send a signal for more investment in venture capital-type vehicles to fund the scaling of neuroscience-backed solutions.

Building on this emerging asset class, it is conceivable that a Brain Capital “exchange traded fund” (ETF) could be developed. ETFs are a type of security that track an index, sector, or commodity and can be purchased or sold on a stock exchange like regular stocks. Such thematic ETFs have already been established for areas such as 

. For a Brain Capital ETF, rules—optimized for brain health and skills building—would need to be generated to determine which company stocks are included and excluded. Potential companies engaged in Brain Capital-building activities may include pharmaceutical and biotech companies, technology companies, health systems and health insurers, educational technology companies, and many others.

The neuroscience innovation market is often riddled with perverse incentives at the detriment of brain health (in social media, for example), as companies and shareholders chase returns. We need a new model to link brain-based innovation with economics—a disciplined approach, methodology, and a set of services for accelerating responsible innovation. To this end, we have developed a “

” model that specifically aims to create and integrate neuroscience advances, policy, diplomacy, economic theories, responsible innovation, and the development and deployment of financial instruments.

We believe that in the 21st century, there are no brains without capital, and no capital without brains. Therefore, a novel approach to building Brain Capital and mitigating global brain challenges is critical to ensuring and improving societal health and for economic growth and prosperity. Brain Capital technology and investment, carefully interwoven into our economy, will advance neuroscience and bring lasting, high-value, durable benefits to our global community. Brain Capital is perhaps the first foray into a new field of “financial engineering in the pursuit of brain building.”

We invite you to consider this Brain Capital framework as you innovate, invest and tackle social challenges.
