Foresight Conference 2019 is organised by the Centre for Strategic Futures (CSF) in Singapore. The conference will be held on 25 and 26 July 2019, with the theme “Society 4.0”. This is CSF’s fifth Foresight Conference, which brings thought leaders and practitioners from different backgrounds together to explore emerging issues of global significance. The dialogue requires individuals who have evolved beyond merely meeting physical needs and who have the
capacity and freedom to address those deeper emotional, spiritual and intellectual needs. This will require constant learning, questioning and curiosity. It will require a humanisation of technology. It will not be easy.
But most importantly, it will require human intention and human design.
