Par Daniel Kaplan le 25/03/04 | 2 commentaires | 1,688 lectures | Impression Thierry Gaudin ( http://www.gaudin.org ), prospectiviste, président de Prospective 2100 ( http://2100.org ) a impressionné l’auditoire des dernières rencontres d’Autrans lors de sa conférence inaugurale. En mettant en perspective les questions de bien communs publics, de coopération et d’appropriation sociale, il a proposé quelques thèmes de réflexion qui devraient nous accompagner longtemps : celui de la société de la reconnaissance (plutôt que de la connaissance), celui de la place des “communs” et de la propriété intellectuelle et celui des “crises” passées et à venir de la société de la connaissance. http://www.internetactu.net/2004/03/25/autrans-2004-2e-partie-thierry-gaudin-les-enjeux-de-la-socit-cognitive/

FuturistSpeaker.com – The personal blog of Futurist Thomas Frey

Working with many early stage inventors, I often have the privilege of seeing some truly remarkable inventions and innovations. A few days ago I was shown a technology that snugly fits into that remarkable category, one that has the potential to radically transform the way cars and other vehicles are powered. In fact, vehicles using this power source will never need to stop and refuel.

Futurist Speaker Thomas Frey – Celebrity Keynote, Futurologist, Writer, & Author, of Future Trends & Emerging Technology | DaVinci Institute

Author of the 2011 book “Communicating with the Future,” Futurist Speaker Thomas Frey is a powerful visionary who is revolutionizing our thinking about the future. “The greatest value in understanding the future comes from spotting the major cultural, demographic, societal, and economic shifts early and translating them in to viable business strategies,” says Tom. Thomas continually pushes the envelope of understanding as part of the celebrity speaking circuit by creating fascinating images and understandings of the world to come.
On occasion you can hear me uttering phrases like, “I know it’s going to be a great day because the future is clearly happy with me today.” Or, “no, that’s not a good idea because the future is probably going to push it off a cliff.” From everything I’ve studied, past observers have focused on the concept of the future as being a consequence of time, rather than a stand-alone force of nature.
