Future Impact Summit - LSE event

"The future starts here."

That's the headline message of the Future Impact Summit, which is being organised and hosted by friends of London Futurists among former and present students of the LSE.

The Summit is taking place offline, that is, in physical meeting rooms in the LSE campus in Central London.

It's therefore a great chance for members and friends of London Futurists to meet up face-to-face, rather than over a Zoom connection.

(Sorry, there will be no live-streaming on this occasion.)

The Summit contains eight panels, spread over two days. There will also be a food fair at lunchtime, and a VR and Tech Expo in the early evening.

To attend, you'll need to register in advance on the Future Impact Summit site, https://www.futureimpactsummit.com/.

The ticket cost includes admission to all the panels and expo, as well as the lunchtime food both days.

The tickets cost UKP £50 for members of the general public. However, members of London Futurists who RSVP Yes for this event before Friday will be sent (within 24 hours) a code to use while registering that will reduce the cost to £35.
