About

The ​​Reinforcement Learning Evolution Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to a bold vision: ​​evolving reinforcement learning (RL) while using RL to drive progress across all fields of science, industry, and society.​

Unlike traditional foundations that focus on standardization and stability, ​​we embrace experimentation, radical innovation, and real-world impact.​​ We believe RL's true potential lies not in rigid frameworks, but in ​​breaking boundaries​​—whether in robotics, finance, or beyond.

Annual Topic

We believe focused innovation drives meaningful progress. Each year, we select a ​​groundbreaking theme​​ that pushes the boundaries of what RL can achieve. This annual focus allows us to ​cConcentrate resources​​ on solving high-impact challenges through targeted research initiatives, and ​​foster interdisciplinary collaboration​​ by bringing together domain experts and RL researchers.

Annual Topic of 2025: Embodied Reinforcement Intelligence.

Project Incubator

We actively seek out ​​high-potential RL projects​​—whether from independent researchers, startups, or academic labs—and provide them with ​​computing resources, mentorship, and funding​​ to accelerate their growth. If your idea could redefine RL's future, ​​we want to hear about it.​
