Here are the top 10 questions from discussions to date. 1. Where will be the key hot-spots for AV development and deployment? 2. What sociopolitical forces may accelerate the adoption of full level 5 automation? 3. What level of safety (crashes) is acceptable for the full launch of AV in the next decade? 4. Will AV increase or decrease total traffic flow and congestion? 5. Will automated mobility services replace, reduce or extend the reach of public transport? 6. Of all the tech in the mix, which are in greatest need of further development before the benefits of AV can…

After a century of near monopoly, the days of the dominance by the internal combustion engine (ICE) are apparently coming to an end. But, as with the wider renewable energy debate, if everyone is nearing agreement about the end-state, the key questions now focus on how quickly we will see the transition and what form it will take. Who and what will drive the change and who will be the winners? Many have been forecasting the rise of EV for some years. We have been part of this: In 2004, our expert consultations suggested that the long-term future would be…

The shift from a singular, segment-based approach to one providing cover to customers via more transparent, real-time and personalised platforms with an increased focus on the value of data is coming fast. Much of the change is being led from the outside. Incumbents appear vulnerable, with many responding slowly at best. What are the innovation opportunities, particularly from more and better data? Over the past six months, as part of a unique global research project exploring the Future of Patient Data, Future Agenda has been discussing the key likely shifts and responses with many leading insurance companies as well as…

In 2010, Future Agenda published two chapters from “The World in 2020” that touched on the issue of immigration and how it might shape the world as we moved towards 2020. In “Imbalanced population growth” we noted the twin trends of rising populations in places with fewer resources, and growing economic challenges in the West. Two lines in particular stand out: “It would seem clear that the majority of the world’s population growth will occur in the nations least able to sustain it.” “On the other side of the coin, an overall increase in the working population could also result in…

Hopes for big data relating to physical processes has brought with it expectations around solving some of society’s most intractable issues; the mass collection of ‘personal’ data has ushered in a new kind of data-specific politics as it becomes increasingly apparent that data technologies are invading the most intimate and controversial parts of our personal and social lives. At the heart of this project is a programme of 30 workshops, held in different countries, across different continents, with 25 expert participants drawn from across the data landscape. These included relevant delegates from large multi-national companies, regional organisations, start-ups, universities, NGOs, think-tanks,…
