Synopsis:
Even in a “normalized” world, the increasing speed and scale of exponential change creates significant blind spots.

As the world starts “unlocking”, how should we now interpret the next order impacts of the rapidly shifting paradigms and the futures being prototyped?

In his talk for Singularity University, Roger Spitz, a leading international Futurist based in San Francisco, will share his latest insights on:

  • What existing trends will accelerate or conversely decelerate?
  • What are the most relevant and impactful new trends which are now emerging?
  • What should we be aspiring for to future-proof humanity?
