Keynotes

Diamandis is described by many as “the best and most dynamic speaker in the industry.” He was named by Fortune Magazine as one of the “World’s 50 Greatest Leaders.” Diamandis’ mission through his keynotes is to help his audiences understand the pace and implications of exponential technology, and how to drive innovation within their organizations.

Speaking Topic 1

Longevity Breakthroughs: How Exponential Technologies are Extending the Healthy Human Lifespan – or – Making 100 Years Old, the New 60!

Dr. Diamandis is the co-Author of the NYTimes #1 best-seller LIFE FORCE.

In this talk, Diamandis discusses how exponential advances in biotech, imaging, sensors, and artificial intelligence are enabling us to add decades onto our healthspan, making 100 years old the new 60.

Diamandis provides an understandable and inspiring overview of technologies like genome sequencing, RNA transcriptomics, Wnt pathway modifiers, vaccines, CRISPR/Gene Therapy, liquid biopsies, CAR-T cells, exosomes, and stem cells, and how these technologies are enabling a healthcare revolution.

Diamandis delivers a compelling vision of the future of healthcare, one in which we achieve personalized, preventive medicine, and predictive treatments. And one in which society moves healthcare out of the hospitals and doctor's offices into the home.

The Longevity Keynote Will Cover topics such as:

• CRISPR & Gene Therapy Curing Genetic and Chronic Disease
• Epigenetic Reprogramming and Age-Reversal’
• Organ and Tissue Regeneration
• Gene Sequencing: Decoding the Body, Finding Cancer
• Artificial Intelligence in Radiology and Drug Discovery
• Advanced Diagnostics catching disease at Stage-0
• Stem Cells and Cellular Therapies
• Senolytic Medicines
• The ethical, Economic and Societal Implications of Longevity

Speaking Topic 2

THE META-TRENDS FOR THE DECADE AHEAD.

THE FUTURE IS FASTER THAN YOU THINK

Exponential Technologies are accelerating faster than anyone could has ever imagined.

What happens as AI, robotics, and virtual reality crash into 3D printing, blockchain, and global gigabit networks? How will these convergences transform today’s biggest industries? How will this change the way we raise our kids, govern our nations, and care for our planet?

We will see more change and create greater wealth in the next 10 years, than we have in the past century.

During this gripping and insightful keynote, Diamandis outlines a road map to our near future, describing how wave after wave of exponentially accelerating technologies will impact both our daily lives and every company.

Diamandis will examine a number of key Meta-trends, as desired by the event, from among the following list of 10 Meta-Trends:

1. Increasing global abundance
2. The power and growth of Artificial Intelligence
3. Global networks connecting everyone, everywhere at gigabit speeds
4. Connecting everything, everywhere is connected (IoT/IoE)
5. The rise of humanoid robots
6. Autonomous personalized transport (fast + cheap)
7. Increasing Human Intelligence (AI Support + BCI)
8. Increasing Human Longevity “Healthspan”
9. Globally Abundant Cheap Renewable Energy
10. Reinventing how we feed the world with Cellular Agriculture & Vertical Farms

BOLD THINKING FOR AN EXPONENTIAL ORGANIZATION

Today a company’s success depends on mindset, its use of exponential technologies and the power of crowdsourcing. This keynote, based on Diamandis’ bestselling book BOLD, examines the approaches required to succeed during this exponential age.

Where should a company be looking to grow 10x bigger, rather than 10-percent bigger? What does it take for a company to become an Exponential Organization? How do you become Uber rather than Kodak?

Diamandis explains how a Massively Transformative Purpose can drive your organization’s culture and help you attract the best employees. He examines the innovation principles used by GoogleX’, and the power of bold, “moonshot” thinking. He details how entrepreneurial billionaires like Larry Page, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Richard Branson think -- and what strategies they use to scale and disrupt.

Diamandis adds personal stories from his own moonshot companies: XPRIZE, which solves the world’s grand challenges through incentive competitions; Human Longevity Inc., which is transforming the healthcare industry and solving aging-related diseases; and Planetary Resources, which is making once-scarce resources abundant.

This keynote will help you:

• Create a culture of innovation and Moonshot thinking within your organization;
• Identify areas in your company where you are going 10% bigger, rather than 10X;
• Understand the key attributes of an Exponential Organization and evaluate the most important changes required to accelerate your growth;
• Transform your organization’s mindset from “linear to exponential” and from “scarcity-minded to abundance focused”;
• Craft a Massively Transformative Purpose (MTP) to drive culture, inspire innovation and attract the best employees

Speaking Topic 4

TRANSFORMING SCARCITY TO ABUNDANCE

Diamandis is the New York Times bestselling author of “ABUNDANCE – The Future Is Better Than You Think” (#1 on Amazon, #2 on NYTimes). In this book, Diamandis shows us how technology is turning areas of scarcity into abundance. This bold, contrarian view, backed up by exhaustive research, introduces our near-term future, where exponentially growing technologies (AI, Robotics, Sensors, Networks, 3D Printing, SynBio, etc.) and the power of the crowd are converging to better the lives of billions.This keynote is an antidote to pessimism. Diamandis examines human need by category — water, food, energy, healthcare, education, communication and freedom — and shows the audience detailed evidence on the revolutionary improvements in these areas over the past century. He addresses how a range of exponential technologies are transforming what was once scarce into abundance. Humanity’s grandest challenge is providing abundance, and this keynote addresses how we rise to meet it.

As President Bill Clinton says, “Abundance shows us that while the headlines are really bad in the world today, the trend lines are pretty good. Extreme poverty is down. The health care is improving dramatically around the world. There are developments now which make me believe we might be able to do what we did in the 1990s, which is to use technological developments to create more jobs than we lose.”

This presentation will help you:

• Understand the “exponential road ahead”: where it is, and where it’s going;
• Formulate how to transform scarcity into abundance and provide leadership with an enthusiastic view of the future;
• Recontextualize the world’s grandest challenges as the world’s biggest business opportunities.
