Being Human in the Age of Exponential Technologies

Being human in the age of exponential technologies

What does it take to perceive the world from an exponential perspective?

The mindset we operate in was shaped by our families, schools, and structures that were serving the needs of a previous, industrial era. To fathom exponential technologies, we have to look at the world differently. Crazy as it sounds, we have to dig deeper into what it means to be human. No one can deny that technology is shaping our current and upcoming era. But how many of us are actively doing anything to bring their human journey into that technology? How many of us continously educate ourselves to become life long learners?

On May 27th, join us for an evening with a handful of people who truly are in the global driver’s seat, influencing and creating technologies inspired by the human experience.

Panelists:

Dr. Shermin Voshmgir – Director of Cryptoeconomics Research Lab at Vienna University of Economics

Gülay Özkan – Founder, GEDS Innovation Consultancy, Singularity University Istanbul Ambassador

Ida Faldbakken – Creative Director at Katapult | Partner at Nordic Impact
