What Are Troops
Troops are focused operating units within Softroop, each dedicated to exploring and developing solutions within a specific domain.
This structure allows work to progress in parallel across multiple areas, while maintaining clarity, accountability, and shared learning at the organizational level.
Each troop operates with defined boundaries and objectives, allowing complexity to be managed without fragmenting the company.
Current Focus Areas
Food & Agriculture Systems
This focus area explores controlled-environment agriculture, resource-efficient food production, and system-level approaches to growing in constrained conditions.
Status: Research and concept validation
Energy & Sustainability
Work in this area centers on distributed energy concepts, modular power systems, and approaches that emphasize resilience and decentralization.
Status: Research
Materials & Infrastructure
This domain includes exploration of advanced construction materials, optimized precast systems, and performance-driven material design for infrastructure applications.
Status: Prototype development and pilot preparation
Smart & Digital Systems
This focus area supports the development of automation frameworks, intelligent system design, and modular digital components that enable physical systems to operate more effectively.
Status: Concept and early design
These focus areas represent active lines of exploration rather than finalized products, and they may evolve as learning progresses.
