Better Futures
The action we take today will determine the kind of world the next generation will inherit.
We're going to step into the future...
...Not ours, but our children's. What could that future look like? What amazing developments will we see on the road to that future? What challenges will we face?
Better Futures is a one day event, taking place in London on 12 February. We'll bring together speakers from a range of disciplines to discuss the big issues that will affect all our futures.
Agenda
We’ll bring together speakers from a range of disciplines to discuss:
- Technology developments, the ethics and applications in financial services
- The impact on wealth distribution and wealth creation
- What the future looks like for the workplace
- How to create a sustainable future for our planet. Can future generations succeed where we have failed?
- And what role do institutional investors have to play?
We'll share the full agenda shortly.
Who should attend?
Those with an interest in long-term savings and/or health and longevity, policy makers and employers.

The action we take today as individuals, businesses and public policy bodies will determine the kind of world the next generation will inherit. That's why we held our first Better Futures event, bringing together over 27 speakers from a wide range of relevant disciplines to discuss how the actions we take today could affect ouf futures. We welcomed Futurist - Ray Hammond, Author - Calum Chace and Debate Mate as well as speakers from Xoomworks, Standard Life, SENS Research Foundation, Centre for Ageing Better, Institute for Cancer Research, Ageing without Children, Society of Later Life Advisers, DataSine, Aberdeen Asset Management, International Longevity Centre, ClubVita, Royal Society of Arts and many more.
We debated the impact artificial intelligence could have on health and longevity, the workforce and both state and individual finances. We examined the implications of our actions today on everything from economic distribution, to healthcare provision through to savings and protection.
At Better Futures 2019 we'll revisit some of these challenges and take a look at the other issues that will shape all our futures.

What do the next generation expect from the future?
We asked some children what they think the world will be like when they grow up. Our experts have some surprising insights into how life might change in the years to come.
1. If we're all living longer, how do we avoid becoming a financial burden on our children?
2. How can we prepare today for a future where robots can do most jobs?
3. Can we really afford the cost of living longer lives?
