Digital Civilizations Forum

October 5-7, 2006
Paris, France

Digital Civilizations Forum Ci’Num 2006
6 & 7 october 2006
Les scénarios du futur / Scenarios for the Future.

Margaux 2006, the second act of the first cycle of the Entretiens des Civilisations Numériques (Digital Civilizations Forum), gives us an opportunity to imagine ten possible futures for the planet in the year 2026. Of course, imagining the future is always a presumptuous act, but it’s one that’s necessary if we want to accept our everyday existence and influence the course of history. Globalization and digital technologies, along with the trends, breaks and emergences we noted in 2005, are still the cornerstone of our thinking. With maximum reason, generosity and lucidity, fifteen “designers of tomorrow” will work with the “decision makers of today”.

Participating in the Forum, IEET Director Giulio Prisco will discuss the prospect of “improving human performance,” carrying it through to its most radical consequences.
