Experts, global thinkers and local innovators will come together this month to discuss what the future might look like for cities, technology and innovation.
As part of the City of Sydney’s annual visiting entrepreneur program, 11 future technology thinkers will take part in 17 events to discuss a future to be determined – from autonomous vehicles, decarbonisation and creative experiences, to future possibilities of the metaverse, cancer research and global health game changers.
Sydneysiders and local entrepreneurs are invited to join the series and learn from global experts about how innovation can have a positive impact on the world and technology can support a shared future.
Lord Mayor Clover Moore said the free series was a great opportunity for the community to hear from global and local experts on the latest technological breakthroughs and innovations.
“The city is bringing together global thinkers and local entrepreneurs and asking them to push the limits of what seems possible. Not only will the collaboration help those in our tech and start-up ecosystems to learn from each other and grow, it will inspire thinking about how we can harness creativity and technology to tackle some of our most pressing issues.
The visiting entrepreneur program, A Future TBD, runs from 22 June to 1 July and features a host of global and local experts across a series of in-person and online events including Tim Kentley Klay, co-founder HYPR and Zoox, Grace Sai, CEO and co-founder Unravel Carbon, Bell Beh, CEO and co-founder BuzzAR and Zareh Nalbandian, co-founder and CEO of Animal Logic.
