Welcome to the Lift Conference
Lift is a series of events built around a community of doers and thinkers who get together in Europe and Asia to explore the social consequences of new technologies. Each conference is a chance to turn changes into opportunities by anticipating the major shifts ahead, and meeting the people who drive them. » learn more
Next : Lift09
Lift09 (Geneva, 25-27 Feb. 09) will look back to look ahead, exploring topics like change, solidarity, love, or design, during three days of intense networking and inspiration themed around a simple question :
"Where did the future go ?"
We were told the future would be about mechanization, computerization, 1984-like nightmares or robots. What did and did not happen ? What can we learn from the predictions that never materialized to better look at the future ?
Lift gathers international entrepreneurs, artists, managers, researchers, investors, CEOs, designers or ethnologist, people who come to be inspired and meet those who make a difference.
Check the program, and see who is coming !
