from Harvard Medical School. Peter’s favorite saying is “the best way to predict the future is to create it yourself. This presentation examines human need by category (e.g., water, food, energy, healthcare, education, communication, and freedom) and addresses how a range of powerful technologies such as synthetic biology, embedded networks and cloud computing, AI... This session also explains how the rapid growth of key exponential technologies (nano, info, bio) are empowering individuals and small companies to do what only governments were able to achieve only a few decades... Such technologies will drive a period of significant disruption and/or opportunity depending on the company's mindset. Diamandis' ultimate message is that companies cannot remain stagnant.

They must evolve or they will die. The future won’t wait. Schedule time with one of our advisors to create a program for your organization. In a world of increasing opportunities, how do you decide what to focus on? What to say yes to, and.. Moonshots exist at the intersection of impossibility, hard work, and exponential tech.

Doing anything big and bold in the world is hard. What if your company could achieve 10X growth while your competitors achieve only 10%? You just learned that your daughter’s disease gives her less than 5 years to live. How do you react?
