Singularity University provides educational programs to train leaders in exponentially advancing technologies. Its 10-week Graduate Studies Program brings together 80 students from 35 countries each year. Students work in interdisciplinary teams on projects addressing humanity's grand challenges, such as developing low-cost housing or drone networks to deliver supplies. Participants provide feedback that the hands-on learning environment is effective for tackling real-world problems with emerging technologies.

NERCOMP: Web Governance - Planning for DisruptionJay Collier
Only some emerging technologies will become disruptive. Can we identify which ones? If so, how? We'll survey some current methods for: analyzing present conditions, examining trends on the horizon, spotting which might become disruptive, and preparing for the unexpected.

Deployment Concept:
Adaptive reuse of automotive airbag technology as a deployment vehicle enables an extremely
rapid deployment methodology (Automotive airbags deploy in approximately 55 milliseconds)
Preliminary Design Concept:
Airbag inflator gas would remain trapped within the inner plenum of the shelter acting as temporary support allowing the exterior shell composite materials cure to designed form.
The shelter’s composition can be designed specifically for the intended Use Group.
Within the LIFT'07 we organized a brainstorming session at arvetica (www.arvetica.com) to discuss if Second Life was simply a fad or eventually a long term business asset for Global Fortune 500 companies
Systemisches Live-Online-Coaching mit Simulationen - Matthias Rückel
Online aufstellen
Eine Online-Aufstellung mit den Symbolsteinen von LPScocoon ist über nahezu jeden PC mit Internetanschluss möglich.
Der interessierte Klient klärt alle formalen und inhaltlichen Fragen im Vorfeld der Beratung mit seinem Coach.
Während der virtuellen Aufstellung sind Berater und Klient online und gleichzeitig über Telefon verbunden. Beide sehen das gleiche Bild und jede Bewegung erscheint zeitgleich auf beiden Bildschirmen. Mit Maus und Tastatur lassen sich alle Aktionen ausführen, wie in einer realen Aufstellung mit den Symbolsteinen.
Und sogar mehr: Der Klient kann eine echte Ich-Perspektive erleben und "mit den Augen" der ausgewählten Figur sein Umfeld betrachten.

How open data contribute to improving the world. The life science use case. The technical, social, ethical issues.
This was a talk given within the iGEM 2020 programme by the London Imperial College students group (https://2020.igem.org/Team:Imperial_College), in a webinar organised by the SOAPLab group on the topic of Ethics of Automation. Excellent Dr Brandon Sepulvado was the other speaker of the day.

Considerations and challenges in building an end to-end microbiome workflowEagle Genomics
Many of the data management and analysis challenges in microbiome research are shared with genomics and other life-science big-data disciplines. However there are aspects that are specific: some are intrinsic to microbiome data, some are related to the maturity of the field, with others related to extracting business value from the data.

Observation - many of our grand
challenges are rooted in
accelerating factors
“Are you working on something that can change the world? Yes or no? The
answer for 99.99999% of people in the world is ‘no.’ I think we need to be
training people on how to change the world. Obviously technologies are the
way to do that. That’s what we’ve seen in the past, that’s what driven all the
change.”
- Larry Page, Google Co-Founder at SU founding conference
