Announcing the Launch of Future Human Club

We’re really excited to announce the launch of the next stage of our Future Human project: Future Human Club.

Over the last four months, our Future Human event has become London’s premier destination for discussion of today’s game-changing ideas – we’ve covered neuroscience in the advertising industry, the impact of digital technology on the fashion industry and the way we dress, algorithms and software potentially replacing middle-class jobs, and how social networking and online privacy is disrupting the justice system.

But unless you live in London, you’re unlikely to make it to one of our events. Plus there’s only so many topics we can cover, and only so much time to cover them each month. So we decided we wanted to let the conversation continue in an open, online space, which is where Future Human Club comes in.

It’s a Facebook group where anyone can share new ideas, inspiring trends and information about the upstart people and projects that are re-shaping our future. It could be a greentech startup that won its next round of funding; a new 3D TV; an eyeball-shaking music video; a dataset on the UK advertising industry; the latest news on the future of the FSA; a discussion being continued from one of our events; something lolerific/roflcopter-worthy – pretty much anything that excites you, and you think will excite others. Interpret that in a broadly SFW way…

Over this weekend, we’ll be setting the wheels in motion with some of the most intriguing content that we can find. Feel free to contribute with anything at any time, and we look forward to seeing you hanging around the Future Human Club in the coming weeks and months!
