IFTF Ten-Year Forecast Summit: A Collective Journey
For over 50 years, Institute for the Future has worked from the belief that the future is in no way inevitable, but is shaped by the choices we make and the possibilities we imagine. Our annual Ten-Year Forecast summit hosted by IFTF Vantage is our annual thought-provoking gathering on the future of society, economy, work, organizations, and technology. It represents a collective journey—alongside fellow foresight practitioners, leaders, strategists, designers, artists, and decision makers—to take a step back from the noise and pressures of today and immerse yourselves in the transformative possibilities of the decade ahead.
Join us as we interrogate the large-scale transitions that await us in the decade to come, both to better understand the emerging landscape that we’ll soon be navigating, and to ready ourselves with a clear-eyed vision of where we’re trying to go.
2021 Ten-Year Forecast Summit | Sept 27-Oct 1
SHAPING WHAT'S NEXT: A DECADE OF TRANSITIONS & TRANSFORMATIONS
The 43rd annual IFTF Ten-Year Forecast will be an immersive online experience, featuring five days of inspirational keynote speakers, in-depth conversations, and interactive foresight workshops.
This year's IFTF Vantage research has been dedicated to interrogating the large-scale transitions that await us in the decade to come. The goal? To better understand the emerging organizational operating landscape and ready ourselves for the transformations that lie ahead.
Across the week, the Ten-Year Forecast summit will explore this latest research and offer a daily menu of immersive journeys, dynamic keynotes, and practical working sessions for you to dive into—each dedicated to sharpening your foresight skills and surfacing insights imperative to long-term thinking and strategic planning. We invite you to join these sessions with your organizational teammates plus foresight practitioners and futures thinkers from other sectors and geographies.
Highlights from Past Summits
In 1968, IFTF's founders wrote:
We live in a period of rapid and vast change. As change quickens in tempo and widens in sweep, the risks and opportunities that confront us call increasingly for expanded efforts to lead the course of events, rather than be led by them. An awareness of the future has thus become more important to the present than ever before.
For over 50 years, Institute for the Future has helped companies, governments, and individuals think creatively and pragmatically about the future. We achieve this by developing tools and methodologies that guide and accelerate the transformation of long-term foresight into practical, near-term insight.
