Creating an Age of Abundance
Abundance for all is within our grasp. We will soon be able to meet and exceed the basic needs of every man, woman, and child on the planet. This bold, contrarian view, backed up by exhaustive research, introduces our near-term future, where exponentially growing technologies and three other powerful forces are conspiring to better the lives of billions.
Since the dawn of humanity, a privileged few have lived in stark contrast to the hardscrabble majority. Conventional wisdom says this gap cannot be closed. But it is closing—fast. Diamandis documents how four forces—exponential technologies, the DIY innovator, the Technophilanthropist, and the Rising Billion—are conspiring to solve our biggest problems. Abundance establishes hard targets for change and lays out a strategic roadmap for governments, industry and entrepreneurs, giving us plenty of reason for optimism.
In his keynote address, Diamandis examining human need by category—water, food, energy, healthcare, education, communication, and freedom—and addresses how a range of powerful technologies such as synthetic biology, embedded networks and cloud computers, AI and robotics, biotechnology and medicine are transforming what was once scarce into something abundant. Providing abundance is humanity’s grandest challenge, and Diamandis discusses how we rise to meet that challenge.
Exponential Technologies Causing Disruptive Innovation
Diamandis provides an overview of how humanity has evolved from being “local and linear” to “global and exponential” and how this change has caused the demise of companies overnight while bringing about the creation of new start-ups out of nowhere. He explains how key exponential technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, biotechnology, embedded networks, nanotechnology/materials, and human machine interfaces have the potential to transform society over the next twenty years. Through Diamandis’ work as chairman of Singularity University and chairman/CEO of X PRIZE, he addresses the impact that exponentially growing technology has on companies, governments, and humanity. He speaks to the potential of creating a world of abundance and the ability of small groups of “do-it-yourself” technologists to do what only governments or large corporations could do before.
- Longevity Breakthroughs: How Exponential Technologies are Extending the Healthy Human Lifespan – or – Making 100 Years Old, the New 60!
In this talk, Diamandis discusses how exponential advances in biotech, imaging, sensors, and artificial intelligence are enabling us to add decades onto our healthspan, making 100 years old the new 60. Diamandis provides an understandable and inspiring overview of technologies like genome sequencing, RNA transcriptomics, Wnt pathway modifiers, vaccines, CRISPR/Gene Therapy, liquid biopsies, CAR-T cells, exosomes, and stem cells, and how these technologies are enabling a healthcare revolution. Diamandis delivers a compelling vision of the future of healthcare, one in which we achieve personalized, preventive medicine, and predictive treatments. And one in which society moves healthcare out of the hospitals and doctor's offices into the home. The Longevity Keynote Will Cover topics such as:
•CRISPR & Gene Therapy Curing Genetic and Chronic Disease
•Epigenetic Reprogramming and Age-Reversal’
•Organ and Tissue Regeneration
•Gene Sequencing: Decoding the Body, Finding Cancer
•Artificial Intelligence in Radiology and Drug Discovery
•Advanced Diagnostics catching disease at Stage-0
•Stem Cells and Cellular Therapies
•Senolytic Medicines
•The ethical, Economic and Societal Implications of Longevity - Meta-Trends - The Future is Faster Than You Think
Technology is accelerating far more quickly than anyone could have imagined. During the next decade, we will create more wealth than we have in the past hundred years. We will also experience more upheaval than ever before. During this gripping and insightful keynote, Diamandis outlines a road map to our near future, describing how wave after wave of exponentially accelerating technologies will impact both our daily lives and every company. What happens as AI, robotics, and virtual reality crash into 3D printing, blockchain, and global gigabit networks? How will these convergences transform today’s biggest industries? How will this change the way we raise our kids, govern our nations, and care for our planet?
Diamandis will also explain why the rate of technological acceleration is, itself, accelerating. He will examine a number of Meta-trends, as desired by the event, from among the following list of 10 Meta-Trends:
•Increasing global abundance
•Accelerating Demonetization & Democratization
•Everyone, everywhere is connected at gigabit speeds
•Everything, everywhere is connected (IoT/IoE)
•You can know anything, anytime, anywhere
•Autonomous personalized transport (fast + cheap)
•Increasing Human Intelligence (AI Support + BCI)
•Increasing Human Longevity “Healthspan”
•Capital Abundance: Access to capital everywhere
•Globally Abundant Cheap Renewable Energy - Transforming Scarcity to Abundance
Diamandis is the New York Times bestselling author of “ABUNDANCE – The Future Is Better Than You Think” (#1 on Amazon, #2 on NYTimes). In this book, Diamandis shows us how technology is turning areas of scarcity into abundance. This bold, contrarian view, backed up by exhaustive research, introduces our near-term future, where exponentially growing technologies (AI, Robotics, Sensors, Networks, 3D Printing, SynBio, etc.) and the power of the crowd are converging to better the lives of billions.
This keynote is an antidote to pessimism. Diamandis examines human need by category — water, food, energy, healthcare, education, communication and freedom — and shows the audience detailed evidence on the revolutionary improvements in these areas over the past century. He addresses how a range of exponential technologies are transforming what was once scarce into abundance. Humanity’s grandest challenge is providing abundance, and this keynote addresses how we rise to meet it.
As President Bill Clinton says, “Abundance shows us that while the headlines are really bad in the world today, the trend lines are pretty good. Extreme poverty is down. The health care is improving dramatically around the world. There are developments now which make me believe we might be able to do what we did in the 1990s, which is to use technological developments to create more jobs than we lose.” This presentation will help you:
-Understand the “exponential road ahead”: where it is, and where it’s going;
-Formulate how to transform scarcity into abundance and provide leadership with an enthusiastic view of the future;
-Recontextualize the world’s grandest challenges as the world’s biggest business opportunities. - BOLD Thinking for an Exponential Organization
Today a company’s success depends on mindset, its use of exponential technologies and the power of crowdsourcing. This keynote, based on Diamandis’ bestselling book BOLD, examines the approaches required to succeed during this exponential age. Where should a company be looking to grow 10x bigger, rather than 10-percent bigger? What does it take for a company to become an Exponential Organization? How do you become Uber rather than Kodak?
Diamandis explains how a Massively Transformative Purpose can drive your organization’s culture and help you attract the best employees. He examines the innovation principles used by GoogleX’, and the power of bold, “moonshot” thinking. He details how entrepreneurial billionaires like Larry Page, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Richard Branson think -- and what strategies they use to scale and disrupt. Diamandis adds personal stories from his own moonshot companies: XPRIZE, which solves the world’s grand challenges through incentive competitions; Human Longevity Inc., which is transforming the healthcare industry and solving aging-related diseases; and Planetary Resources, which is making once-scarce resources abundant.
This keynote will help you:
-Create a culture of innovation and Moonshot thinking within your organization;
-Identify areas in your company where you are going 10% bigger, rather than 10X;
-Understand the key attributes of an Exponential Organization and evaluate the most important changes required to accelerate your growth;
-Transform your organization’s mindset from “linear to exponential” and from “scarcity-minded to abundance focused”;
-Craft a Massively Transformative Purpose (MTP) to drive culture, inspire innovation and attract the best employees
