A2035 Ventures adds former Meta AI lead to Project 777 technical team
A2035 Ventures says it has added former Meta Superintelligence Labs agentic AI lead Sean Perry as strategic technical lead for Project 777, alongside technical adviser Preston Dunlap.
A2035 Ventures says it has added former Meta Superintelligence Labs agentic AI lead Sean Perry as strategic technical lead for Project 777, alongside technical adviser Preston Dunlap.
The Dallas-based company said the move comes as Project 777 advances strategic discussions with major AI organizations in a Sept. 3, 2026, PR Newswire release.
The company says Project 777 is a system that can support safer advanced AI development and selective commercialization. Those claims were made in a company release and were not independently verified in the material provided.
Project 777’s claimed technical milestones
A2035 Ventures describes Project 777 as a “compounding intelligence layer” above frontier models and agents. In the release, the company says the system has demonstrated three core breakthroughs: runtime intelligence and safety, bounded recursive self-improvement, and cross-domain operation through the same core architecture.
The release says built-in layers continuously check reasoning, evidence and safety, and can stop or redirect work before it advances. It also says the intelligence producing the work cannot simply approve itself.
The company says Project 777 has operated a governed architecture for the past two years. According to the release, that architecture combines bounded recursive self-improvement, a model-agnostic multi-agent intelligence layer and independent runtime control.
A2035 Ventures says the system carries forward validated intelligence, evaluation history, accepted improvements, rejected changes and operating experience as underlying frontier models change. The company says that combination represents early operating signs of safe superintelligence.
Background on the leadership changes
The release identifies Preston Dunlap as the first chief technology officer and chief architect of the U.S. Space Force and U.S. Air Force. It says he has advised Project 777 since April 2025 and now serves as a technical adviser.
Sean Perry is described in the release as a former member of Agentic AI at Meta Superintelligence Labs. A2035 Ventures says Perry reviewed Project 777’s Technical Proof Packet after leaving Meta’s superintelligence organization and is now helping lead technical diligence and strategic technical engagement.
The company also cites Google DeepMind’s paper From AGI to ASI, saying it identifies recursive self-improvement, new architectures and multi-agent collective intelligence as credible pathways toward artificial superintelligence.
Commercial claims and next steps
A2035 Ventures says it previously entered into an option and license agreement with Atherion Bioresearch covering up to three Project 777-generated disease programs. The release says aggregate potential non-royalty consideration across those programs can exceed $1 million, plus downstream royalties.
The company says it is selectively licensing Project 777-generated solutions and continuing strategic discussions with major technology and frontier-AI organizations.
TK Stohlman, identified in the release as founder and architect of Project 777, said the project has demonstrated three core breakthroughs and that Perry and Dunlap bring perspective from frontier AI and national-security systems as the team strengthens evidence and scales what works.
The next developments would be further technical diligence, additional licensing activity and any follow-on announcements about partnerships or deployments.
