Great to speak to a room full of lawyers at the London Stock Exchange this morning about emerging risks!
Part of why I became a futurist is because I don't think we talk about risk enough - and if we aren't aware of the pitfalls of new technologies, how are we going to avoid them?
Thank you Travelers for inviting me to be your opening keynote!

​In case you missed last Thursday - check out this video of 'F**k Cyberpunk: How female-led design & thinking can redefine the Metaverse':

A couple of my key takeaways:

⭐️ The human experience and design of the metaverse desperately needs our attention and imagination.

⭐️ While intellectually many understand the metaverse is the future, emotionally there is still a significant disconnect. Representation is key.

⭐️ We have an amazing opportunity to create something that could: right generations of wrongs; be used as a tool of empowerment rather than subjugation; bridge the divides Web 2.0 has created; and produce something that - not only do we Want to participate in - but also has the potential to enhance minds, bodies, spirits, promote healing and equality, doesn’t harm our natural environment, and is actually something that gives people hope.  

New Worlds. New Priorities. New Conversations.

I'd like to invite you to an upcoming discussion I'm hosting and sponsoring along with designer Freyja Sewell : 

"F**k Cyberpunk: How female-led design & thinking can redefine the Metaverse" 

We are on the cusp of co-creating a new world, the Metaverse. We can create whatever kind of world we want. It can be beautiful, biophilic, inclusive and diverse. Yet too often rather than exploring new visions and priorities, we face a self fulfilling prophecy of cyberpunk, commercialism and dystopia. This event is a conversation around how we can do things differently and aim for something better.

To be held online Thursday 30th March, 18:00 - 19:00 BST.
