About

Who knows what's next? Consistently, TTI/Vanguard members who attend [next] do. By 2030, world population will be 8.4 billion, 7.1 billion in developing countries. The next 13 years will see aging populations, increased scarcity of natural resources, climate change, and continued urbanization, globalization, and virtualization. So at our 2016 [next] meeting included bioengineered supercomputers; sensors, satellites, and big data to predict the weather at the microclimate scale; a view of artificial intelligence from the man who literally wrote the book, MIT’s Patrick Henry Winston; RAM clouds; virtual environments; and an AR/VR menagerie of devices and systems. Come to San Francisco and find out what's next!
