Who better to talk about possible futures of transhumanism than the person generally considered to be the founder of modern transhumanism, Max More?

Max will be the speaker at this webinar in our ongoing series exploring which future scenarios involving transhumanism are the most likely or the most desirable.

Max gave this definition back in 1990: "Transhumanism is a class of philosophies of life that seek the continuation and acceleration of the evolution of intelligent life beyond its currently human form and human limitations by means of science and technology, guided by life-promoting principles and values."

Since then, Max has been closely involved in many of the most central and long-lasting projects of the transhumanist community.

In this webinar, we'll be hearing how Max's ideas have evolved over the years, what he considers the key insights that transhumanism offers in 2025 and beyond, and which issues and opportunities deserve particular attention by friends and allies of the movement.

The webinar will include plenty of time for audience questions and feedback.

[Max More](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_More) writes and publishes the substack [Extropic Thoughts](https://substack.com/@maxmore), which describes itself as follows: "Improving the human future: Philosophical and economic perspectives on life extension, risk and decision making, the Proactionary Principle, human enhancement, AI, positive views of the future, against fearmongering."

Max is Director of Communications at Biostasis Technologies, author of the Proactionary Principle, and co-editor of The Transhumanist Reader.
In August 1988, along with Tom Bell, Max published the first edition of the magazine "Extropy: Vaccine For Future Shock". The magazine was subsequently re-titled as "Extropy: Journal of Transhumanist Thought".

Max has a degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics from St Anne's College, Oxford (1986) and a PhD (1995) from the University of Southern California for his thesis examining theories of the nature of death, and what it is about each individual that continues despite great change over time.
