Join a historic convergence of leading long term organizations and thought leaders. Two days with people at the forefront of world-changing technologies that may reshape our career, body and mind – that challenge our perception of what can and should be done.
Convergence08 is an Unconference: each day starts and ends with an eye-opening debate or keynote to inspire us, and the remaining agenda is created by YOU.
Join in freewheeling discussions on topics below, or – better yet – convene your own group focused on exactly what you think is most important:
- Neurotechnology
- Artificial general intelligence
- Synthetic biology
- Human enhancement
- Space tourism
- Social software
- Prediction markets
- Nanotechnology
- Smart drugs
- Bioethics
- Cleantech
- NBIC startup tips
- Reputation systems
- Life extension / anti-aging
- Accelerating change
- Biotechnology
- Open source everything
- Sousveillance / privacy
Don't see your topics here? Add them to the Convergence08 Wiki! You just may get a new startup or film project crystallizing around your topic before the conference is over.
All this takes place at the Computer History Museum in the heart of Silicon Valley – where new technological revolutions grow like weeds. Come help plant the next one!
Note: We invite you to bring a demo or technology to share with the Convergence08 community. Just let us know in advance.
