Hi there futurist,
Over the next few weeks we will be sending you links, maps, treasures, and thoughts from the leaders across the Australian business ecosystem. These will be curated by my good self and my motley crew of futurists, technologists, creatives, and geeks. We really hope you find these informative and fun, and add a lot of value to your day.
Ultimately we want to be your guides in this maze. We are bringing together the people creating the future. Some of these people are:
Ted Schilowitz, Futurist from Paramount Pictures
Christyl Johnson,?Deputy Centre Director T&R and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center
Dr Jane Thomason, Chair of the World Metaverse Council?

Tony Clark, Academy Award for Science and Technology in the motion picture arts
These people are all connected through the threads of human endeavour and the desire to make the world a better place through the application of emerging technologies. These people are the OGs of the next industrial revolution, and they can show us where they started, and where we can begin.
Futures Conference is a place where we are bridging the gap between disparate parts of our economy whilst facing some of the toughest challenges ever known to modern human kind.
We want you to be part of the conversation.
Join us in Sydney this July 10th and 11th and be a part of the founding conversation around the most important question: Where do we want to be in the future?
Let us know topics and areas of interest so we can share knowledge over the next few weeks with these updates.
See you in the future!
Cheers
Dr Cath and the FC Team

1 年We need not be afraid of the future, for the future will be in our own hands. To join the first industrial revolution, you needed to open a factory or go and work. In the fifth industrial revolution all you need is a mobile phone. Virtual realities will be key to providing meaning in the post-industrial world. Maybe these virtual realities will be generated inside computers. Maybe they will be generated outside computers, in the shape of new religions and ideologies. Maybe it will be a combination of the two. The end of work will not necessarily mean the end of meaning, because meaning is generated by imagining rather than by working. How do we prepare? The human brain does not understand exponential growth, our society is not up for the pace of change. How do we prepare?
