The 17th annual Future in Review Conference

A Strategic News Service Presentation

What is Future in Review (FiRe)?

The leading global conference on the intersection of technology and the economy. New partnerships, projects, and plans you can’t afford to miss. If your success depends on having an accurate view of the future, or you’d like to meet others who are able and motivated to forge action-based alliances, this is the most important conference you will attend. Be one of the thought leaders in the FiRe conversation, analyzing and creating the future of technology, economics, pure science, the environment, genomics, education, and more.

Hosted by About Mark Anderson, founder and publisher of the Strategic News Service™, the Future in Review® (FiRe) conference exposes world experts and participants to new ideas in a manner that produces an accurate portrait of the future in technology, including the global economy, cloud computing, biology and medical diagnostics, policy, netbooks, space travel, sustainability, and other fields that contribute to technology outcomes. (Strategic News Service and the SNS weekly global report have been accurately predicting the technology industry’s future since 1995.) This intimate conference is designed to be intellectually challenging, financially rewarding, and fun.

Where and when?
The 17th annual FiRe conference will be held October 8th – 11th, 2019, at the The Lodge at Torrey Pines, in La Jolla, CA.

What makes FiRe unique?
No other conference offers participants a more accurate view of the technology industry in the next 3-5 years. And no other conference provides the intellectual engagement and challenge you will find at FiRe, in a beautiful environment, meeting with the world leaders who are building that future.

In place of canned PowerPoint speeches, FiRe consists entirely of focused conversations on subjects affecting the near- and mid-term future.

Who should attend?
Top officers of world-class technology-driven companies and global investors and policymakers. Many participants are also speakers. Early registration increases the chance that we will ask you to participate in the program.

The Strategic News Service™ is the world’s most reliable source of advanced information at the intersection of technology and economics. Its publicly graded prediction rate in these areas is unmatched, and its success in pointing out critically important new strategic issues to global thought leaders – often in their own areas of expertise – is well-established.
 
This is why Bill Gates, Michael Dell, Paul Jacobs, Justin Rattner, Steve Ballmer, Bill Janeway, and many other global intellectual, policy, and business leaders have become SNS Members.Since its 1995 inception, SNS has evolved into a global force, expressed partly through a remarkable membership, which works in three modes: to research and describe missing strategic insights into what is happening now, to accurately predict what is to be expected in the next 3-5 years, and to rally interest – when appropriate – in accelerating the benign trends that matter most. In this way, SNS and its members have led a movement beginning with unbiased research in computing and communications, into global integration of markets and trends, and finally culminating in appropriate actions.
 
As a group, we believe that technology drives the global economy. For that reason, we find our work now at the center of leverage for global leaders in every economic and policy segment. Active areas of discussion include, but are not limited to: Computing, Communications, Chip Design, Cleantech, Security and Economic Cyberwar, Fixing Healthcare, Ocean Health, Global Warming, and Cloud Infrastructure.
