Singularity is the single best thing I have done in terms of professional development. As a strategist it was truly inspiring.
Even though I'm born, raised and work in Silicon Valley, I was still blown away by the depth of content of the future of technology in the Singularity Executive Program. Highly recommend!
Rarely do you come across a diverse group of international people that all agree this was one of the best programs they have ever attended.
Don't even think twice about doing this - it will help you realise your true potential in ways you never could have imagined.

Founded in 2008 by renowned futurists Ray Kurzweil & Peter Diamandis, Singularity exists to help individuals, organizations, and governments transform the way they lead, think, and create the future.
We're focused on the convergence and application of exponential technologies to deliver business and societal value. Our unique approach to exponential thinking and technology takes a zoom in - zoom out approach. The Singularity perspective examines technologies through the lens of their applications on an individual, organizational, and societal level. Pairing this perspective with our tools and frameworks gives leaders a new mindset and lens to see the world through.
