The 2-day SingularityU The Netherlands Summit 2017 will take place on 20 - 21 November in the Philharmonie in Haarlem. Bringing the world's leading speakers and experts on exponentially accelerating technologies together with inspirators who are changing and shaping the world in a positive way, providing us with the mindset, knowledge and tools we need in an exponentially changing world.

Be The Change!

In a world of accelerating technologies, we - as human beings - have an essential role to play. Making sure that these technologies are used in a positive way, solving our grandest challenges in the process. We not only have the ability, but also the duty to strive for a world of abundance. We’re all in this together. And only by actively participating, while discussing the ethics, the policies and the world we want to live in, we will be able to shape a brighter future for us and our children.

We believe you can make that difference. We believe you can be the change that this world so desperately needs.

We invite you for the SingularityU The Netherlands Summit 2017, where we will inspire you with stories of people that already embody this change, leading the way forward into shaping a brighter future.
