How collaboration, inclusion, and purpose are shaping the next era of trust, energy, and autonomy
Pompano Beach, FL – The future of technology demands balance — between speed and ethics, autonomy and accountability, innovation and inclusion. Helixis Technology Corp and HerculE-Q are proving that balance is possible through collaboration, not competition.
Founded by Twyla Jackson and Hannah LaCon, both alumnae of NASA’s Technology Transfer (T2X) Program, the two companies are co-developing PWR-ARC™, the world’s first trust-governed wireless energy network. Their work merges Helixis’ Autonomous Trust Infrastructure (ATI) — which ensures machines act ethically and accountably — with HerculE-Q’s advanced Q-BOX™ wireless charging hardware.
“True progress doesn’t happen when one group leads alone,” said Twyla Jackson, Founder and Operating Visionary of Helixis Technology. “It happens when women and men build together — when every perspective has a seat at the table. PWR-ARC™ is proof of that partnership in action.”
“We need diversity of experience as much as we need diversity of thought,” added Hannah LaCon, Founder and CEO of HerculE-Q. “We’re not here to replace anyone — we’re here to expand what innovation looks like.”
Helixis and HerculE-Q’s collaboration is already gaining national attention. Their ATI × PWR-ARC™ solution earned Second Place in the Crypto for Good HBCU Innovation Challenge, hosted by Base 11 and Coinbase, recognizing their use of blockchain verification, wireless energy, and civic policy enforcement to make energy access equitable and secure.
Beyond the competition, the partnership demonstrates how NASA innovation, ethical AI, and inclusive design can merge to create infrastructure that benefits everyone. Together, Jackson and LaCon are developing pilot corridors that blend clean energy, machine accountability, and community ownership — setting a new standard for how emerging technologies can serve both industry and humanity.
“This is about designing the future with integrity,” said Jackson. “We’re not just proving that women belong in tech — we’re proving that when everyone contributes, society moves forward.”
Helixis Technology Corp is a civic infrastructure company designing the Autonomous Trust Infrastructure (ATI) — a real-time, enforceable system connecting policy, identity, and behavior across autonomous systems. A NASA T2X alumnus and NVIDIA Inception member, Helixis builds technologies that make autonomy accountable, equitable, and human-aligned.
