Up your Game. Invest Forward.
You are either being disrupted or leading the disruption
What's your next move?
Why a Collective?
Because a group of smart people is smarter than any 1 individual
Because together we have wider reach and exponentially more connections
A collective is more than the sum of its parts - magic happens in between
What is the Futurist Collective
The Futurist Collective is an exclusive collection of futurists, strategists and great business minds who co-create the world by investing smartly in themselves, their careers, and the technologies and people who will make a lasting change.
Their foresight, insight and network reaches further and wider than any conventional expert and their focus is on leaving a legacy of change, a legacy of sustainability, a legacy for the next generation.
Wealth creation isn't just about discipline.
What happens in the next 20 years does not just depend on market conditions and career opportunities. Handing over to the "experts" is the old model.
What you create for your future is about starting with the end in mind. Being part of focused groups of brilliant minds collaborating is the new way of working. Harnessing the wisdom of the crowd.
We organise monthly events to bring our investor network together.
We curate founder pitches to present to our investors once a quarter.
We harness the wisdom of the crowd to make investment decisions
and provide feedback to the founder teams
What the Collective Brings
You'll receive powerful tools that you can immediately apply to your portfolio to help you identify exponential opportunities. You'll also become part of a tight-knit, extraordinary group of individuals who collaborate and are committed to Next Generation thinking.
Three main components drive the value to you in experiential ways:
Join the Wise Crowd
Be a member
Join monthly events to both look at emerging trends and connect the dots with your current career and network. Get to know the Wise Crowd, diversify and grow your network of already established business players and gain access to both content, people and investment opportunities you would normally not even be aware of. And on top of that you are featured on the Board Member Network for scale-ups. You may be the missing link in an eco-system without even knowing it.
Leverage the Wisdom of the Crowd
Vote and Give feedback
Every one of our members has a ' Blink' Capability, an expertise or competence, applicable to business. Apply this blink capability and in-built-business smarts that you apply on a daily basis to start ups, and harness the Wisdom of the Crowd. Learn what other strategists and Futurists are saying to make better informed business decisions.
