Formerly the Silicon Valley Strategic Foresight Meetup Group...

This group is for those who enjoy understanding how rapid technological changes are affecting social, economic, cultural and political systems. We're a diverse group... engineers, product managers, trainers, venture capitalists, and a bunch of other folks I haven't met yet.

Many of us are action-oriented, so it's likely you'll meet someone who's interested in creating something new or improving something that exists today.

Alternatively, you may just want to learn about what other people are working on and what they are interested in.

If it sounds interesting to you, come join us. Everyone is welcome!

    Great except for the noise (and the difficulty of finding nearby parking) -- the food and service were quite good.
