Hiure Queiroz is a PhD candidate in Innovation and Technology at the Federal University of São Paulo (Unifesp), where he conducts research focused on the development of social technologies for community well-being. He holds a degree in Physics and a master's degree in Materials Science.

He is a member of the Associação Portal Sem Porteiras (redepsp.org) , where he has been actively involved in initiatives that combine participatory methodologies, territorial engagement, and the development of context-based technologies. He was part of the coordination team of LabLab (lablab.tec.br), a collaborative process that brings together farmers, technologists, and researchers to co-create technological solutions rooted in local realities. Rather than focusing on isolated products, LabLab emphasizes the construction of processes, local capacities, and shared governance models for technology development.

Hiure works to promote the critical appropriation of science and technology through hacker culture and grassroots innovation. He is a founding partner of Transistir Social Tech, an initiative dedicated to the development of hardware and software focused on social and decentralized technologies.
