At the Future Trends Forum, we try to answer this question by anticipating trends that will define the near future.
Our think tank brings together international leaders to analyze the most relevant forward-focused trends, with a clear purpose: to share our knowledge and transform society through innovation.
30 experts. 2 days. 1 great challenge
The reality of climate change demonstrates that our socioeconomic models must evolve to ensure a sustainable future for our planet. The urgency has never been clearer in 2022, as the world grapples with the national security implications of dependence on fossil fuels.
Our goal is to turn the challenge of achieving net zero into targeted, actionable opportunities
June’s meeting will explore the advanced technologies and promising innovations that will be key to creating a net zero world – and allow human civilization to continue its forward march.

This article has been translated using artificial intelligence Fusion energy is a global promise -but also a monumental challenge. To turn it into a clean, abundant, and safe energy source, mastering plasma is not enough: we must learn how to fuel and sustain that system for decades. That’s the key point raised by Richard Pearson, […]
At the Future Trends Forum Fusion Forward, Ángel Ibarra (IFMIF-DONES) highlights a challenge that rarely makes headlines but is absolutely decisive: without functional materials validated under extreme conditions, fusion will not be viable
How Carlos Hidalgo Is Paving the Way for Viable Fusion Energy Through Physics-Technology Integration
