We are proud to announce that the first opus of the Ajinomatrix story is now published.

This book marks a significant milestone—not as an endpoint, but as a moment of crystallization. It documents the origins of Ajinomatrix, the intellectual and ethical architecture behind the project, and the long arc that has guided its evolution from early research into a pre-unicorn-level vision.

At its core, this publication is about readiness: readiness of ideas, of structure, and of responsibility.

From Ajinomatrix to Life-X: Valuation Is Not Just a Number

Ajinomatrix has never been conceived as a standalone product company. From the beginning, it was designed as a generative nucleus—a platform from which multiple ventures, disciplines, and institutions could emerge. This is now formalizing into what we call Life-X: a constellation of projects operating at the intersection of AI, sensory science, food, health, sustainability, and space-grade life support systems.

Valuation, in this context, is not merely financial. It is also intellectual, societal, and temporal. The book makes this explicit: scaling technology without scaling ethics, knowledge, and cultural responsibility is no longer sufficient.

The Ajinomatrix Foundation (FAJX): Why a Foundation Belongs at the Core

One of the most important chapters of the book introduces the Ajinomatrix Foundation (FAJX).

The Foundation was not created after the company, nor alongside it as a communication layer. It emerged organically from the same question that gave birth to Ajinomatrix itself: How do we ensure that technological progress produces positive, lasting outcomes for humanity?

Inspired by the Cousteau legacy—but focused on food, sensory heritage, and biodiversity—the Foundation exists to:

Protect culinary and sensory heritage worldwide
Promote open science and ethical AI
Bridge research, education, and real-world practice
Anchor innovation in long-term ecological and cultural responsibility

The book clarifies this point unequivocally: FAJX is not an accessory—it is a structural pillar.

Ajinomatrix BioSphere: Learning Automation “Sur le Tas”

In parallel with the book, Ajinomatrix BioSphere is releasing a new educational syllabus:“Fountains as Life Support Pedagogy for SpaceTech Endeavors.”

This syllabus is a practical guide for learning automation, systems thinking, and applied AI through low-cost, consumer-grade components—a complete setup of ~30 parts, costing approximately €200–€300 ($220–$330).

The objective is simple and radical:

Make advanced technological understanding accessible through hands-on experimentation.

By working on small, observable life-support systems, learners acquire the cognitive foundations required for AI, FoodTech, and SpaceTech—without abstraction, and without prohibitive cost.

A Word of Respect to Our Ecosystem: Congratulations to AKA Foods

Finally, we want to take a moment to warmly congratulate AKA Foods on their recently announced $17.5M financing round.

We recognize the significance of this achievement—not only as a financial milestone, but as a validation of years of deep technological work in plant-based food innovation. The emergence of strong, well-funded peers strengthens the entire ecosystem and accelerates collective progress.

We are proud to see companies like AKA Foods advancing the frontier with rigor and ambition.

Looking Forward

This publication is the First Opus of the Ajinomatrix project. Others will follow—each documenting a distinct phase of growth, application, and impact.

For now, we celebrate:
