Description

Exponential View presents our final gathering of 2016.

We've chosen a really apposite topic to close of the year: The Future of Longevity

The discussion will be led by Dr Shamil Chandaria. Shamil will cover off:

  • Understanding longevity trends

  • The science of life extension

  • The importance of developing super-wellbeing in conjunction with super-longevity and super-intelligence

  • Social and economic implications of super-longevity

Shamil is a philosopher, entrepreneur and technology investor. He is a Research Fellow at the Institute of Philosophy within the School of Advanced Study at the University of London and Senior Advisor at Google DeepMind. (Learn more about Shamil here.)

We'll also have a talk from Katz Kiely on how we can better help people manage change and the importance of autonomy and a feeling of fairness in helping people thrive in change.

Katz is a communication strategist who has worked with the UN, Ogilvy and other international organisations. (Learn more about her here.)

Exponential View events are hand-curated, participatory events tackling the most interesting and challenging questions of the day.

This is our last event this year so it'll be a good chance to have an end-of-year conversation with fellow members of the Exponential View community.

Your brains will be challenge and contribution expected, so we will serve dinner and drinks during the evening to keep you fuelled up.




Tickets are not transferrable or refundable. Naturally, we reserve the right to refuse admission.
