PREVIOUS YEARS
FORESIGHT INSTITUTE
Our community is where breakthrough technologies are born. For the last 35 years, Foresight, based in California, has been gathering and supporting the thinkers shaping the edge of science and tech innovation. Nanotechnology, AGI, smart contracts, prediction markets, and specific longevity approaches: name it, we were there for it.
Foresight’s programs focus on advancing molecular nanotechnology, biotechnology for longevity, and computer science, but our work extends cross disciplinarily into other related tech fields, such as space, neurotech.
We are a positive-future-movement, composed of multiple, specialized but coordinated sub-projects. Each of them is a piece of the puzzle of our grand future.
We are expanding our horizons and want to meet our global community that grew virtually around these interests in person. Join us in France for a fast-forward dip into flourishing futures: an eye-opening journey through the ground-breaking innovations built by our international community.
