Futuremaker (n.) - someone who actively engages in shaping the world rather than remaining a passive observer, motivated by the belief that technology can forge a brighter future.
Singularity was founded in 2008 by Peter Diamandis and Ray Kurzweil.
After being inspired by Ray’s seminal work, 'The Singularity is Near,' Peter pitched an idea at dinner: a new university aimed at educating the leaders of tomorrow. Education for the paradigm-shifting, game-changing, nothing-is-ever-the-same-again breakthroughs… happening all the time.
After being inspired by Ray’s seminal work, 'The Singularity is Near,' Peter pitched an idea at dinner: a new university aimed at educating the leaders of tomorrow. Education for the paradigm-shifting, game-changing, nothing-is-ever-the-same-again breakthroughs… happening all the time.
They could see that the current education system was setting up leaders to fail, unable to keep up with the exponential pace of technological change. The world needed leaders who were empowered with not only a broad understanding of technology, but a grasp of the challenges humanity is facing and a fearlessly entrepreneurial mindset.
This conversation led to the founding of a new university with support from NASA, Google and others, and the launch of the now famous 10-week Graduate Studies Program, better known as the GSP. It was called Singularity University, inspired by Ray’s book and the mission to help leaders see beyond the horizon and into the uncertain future.
Fast forward to today—technology is accelerating faster than ever and our mission remains unchanged. Since 2008, we’ve helped individuals, organizations, and governments transform the way they lead, think, and create the future through transformative educational programs and experiences focused on the convergence and application of exponential technologies to deliver business and societal value.
A 5-day program designed for leaders tasked with leading their organization forward into the future and a holistic view of the exponential technologies.

Exponential technologies and innovation are in our DNA at Airbus. What was radical about SU and its approach to innovation was teaming across domains at Airbus and being challenged and inspired to project farther into the future to define the system we needed to develop today. Singularity brought uncertainty to our process, which initially was very uncomfortable for us, but really added value in pushing us to improve our solution. Once we accepted it, we were able to better plan with more positive propositions and better, more flexible outcomes for the short and long term. The Singulartity process adapted very well to the technology.
SU’s custom executive program changed us, creating a breakthrough moment and revolutionized the way we think about the massive challenges and opportunities we are embracing.
The Custom Program was the kick-start we needed to create a mindset shift in the company. It brought 10x thinking to the way we think about the technology we develop, business models and processes.
SU’s custom executive program changed us, creating a breakthrough moment and revolutionized the way we think about the massive challenges and opportunities we are embracing.
SU is a fantastic way of implementing our strategy and a good investment for us. As a result of the SU program, we’ve developed strong, personal, trusted relationships with Dutch business leaders and our network is huge.
My visit to Singularity was inspiring as well as confronting. The future is today! I took home lots of ideas to develop our company to the next stage. Artificial intelligence, robotics and healthcare developments will change the role of mankind and the nature of our business. Yuval Noah Harari’s Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow came to life.
Global Impact Challenges are targeted, impact-based startup competitions hosted by Singularity. Since 2010, we've partnered with organizations all over the world to create competitions that identify the most innovative and promising solutions to specific Global Grand Challenges, which are then invited to join us in Silicon Valley to learn how to incorporate Singularity’s core concepts into scalable business models, before showcasing these exponential solutions to our global network of innovators, investors, experts, and impact partners.

I have never attended an event like this. It is remarkable.
At A360 I met my partners and accelerated my Massively Transformative Purpose to feed a billion people. I’m grateful to the Abundance community.
By far the most energizing and inspiring event of my year.
A360 is key in helping me anticipate the future, so I don’t live in the past. My entire business depends on it.
I joined Abundance360 to learn from and partner with A360’s global community of leaders and innovators.
I love Peter’s focus on longevity during A360 programs. He helps me stay in touch with cutting edge technology and treatments that have impacted my healthspan.
