Workshop at the Singularity University

Our Spime Design Workshop format is becoming fairly popular, with events being held more and more frequently both online, and at corporations, or conferences. We are very much looking forward to the next one which is being delivered at the Singularity University.

The Singularity University aims to assemble, educate and inspire a cadre of leaders who strive to understand and facilitate the development of exponentially advancing technologies and apply, focus and guide these tools to address humanity’s grand challenges.

Funded, among others, by Google and Nasa, the Singularity University, is based at the NASA Ames Research Center’s campus in Silicon Valley. The inaugural Graduate Summer Program ‘09 has started a few weeks ago with forty students selected from over 1400 candidates from all over the world. The interdisciplinary program has seen an outstanding list of lectures by Vint Cerf, Ralph Merkle, Ray Kurzweil, Peter Diamandis, Paul Saffo to mention just a few.
