A Global Expert Network – It Takes a Guild …

It’s always been true that innovation++ begins with sparks, not from the center, but from the poles. Today, these foresight poles exist in many locations and are guided by the work of many people. It takes a guild to combine the elements, derive meaning, and translate those insights into practical applications.

 

A New Style of Collaboration  – Exponential Smarts

Designed to piece together knowledge, expertise, social insights and corporate challenges into a framework that serves its members as individuals and serves clients as they reimagine and design their futures. We have pulled together the collaborative all-stars of the future world.
