About Tom Osman
Tom Osman is a technologist and Technology Dealer.
I've always been drawn to the moment a new capability changes what is economically or strategically possible. My work is to find those moments early: investigate frontier technologies, understand their second-order effects, and identify the applications with the greatest leverage.
I live in Mallorca with my wife and four kids, and I run Shiny Technologies. My background spans product building, venture scouting, company-building, and helping teams apply emerging technology. That gives me a practical view of the full journey from new capability to strategic consequence.

// Technology Dealer
Discover what matters. Place it where it matters most.
Technology Dealer is my shorthand for the role: discover promising capabilities, develop a view on their strategic consequence, and connect them with the people, markets, and systems where they can create the most value.
