IRIS Labs

What this lab is

Ignition Sequence Lab is the build arm of Ignition Sequence. The consultancy is the vehicle — vCTO work, advisory, audits — and its revenue is the near-term fuel. The Lab is where that revenue, joined by university, corporate, and federal money, becomes working systems. It is co-funded and output-oriented by design: proofs of concept, not reports. Frank Moss owns the technical work and serves as principal investigator; Ken Jones owns brand, positioning, and go-to-market. Two owning partners, one umbrella entity, St. Louis, Missouri.
