Message from the organizers of "Design Futures Collective"


Nozomi Kosaka , Executive Officer Mediagene
 Inc. Brand Editor-in-Chief Business Insider Japan

Business Insider Japan 's vision is " Better Capitalism ." Based on the idea of ​​"creating an economy and society where kindness reigns," we have been reporting on signs of change at a time of transition for capitalism. We believe that the role of the media goes beyond "reporting" to "connect," "dialogue," and "question." In this program, we will join together to encounter specialized knowledge, engage in dialogue with colleagues who are thinking about the future, and question their thinking on society.


Kazumasa Tsujimura, Infobahn
Inc. and Director of IDL [Infobahn Design Lab.]

Alan Kay, known as the father of the personal computer, once said, "The best way to predict the future is to invent it." Future insight is not about "predicting" the future based on an analysis of the past and present, but rather about actively "creating" it. Why not join us in our Future Insight program to shift the future from a subject of analysis to a subject of creation?
