Making Humans 2.0 a Reality

Always maintaining its position on the cutting edge is MIT's media lab which is hosting a one day conference Humans 2.0: New Minds, New Bodies, New Identities on May 9. I wish I was able to make it but NeuroInsights is on a deadline for the release Neurotechnology Industry 2007 Report, not to mention the annual Neurotech Industry Investing and Partnering Conference we are hosting on May 17-18 or the drafting of the National Neurotechnology Initiative that NIO is working on. So while these thinkers pontificate about the future of the neurosociety back in Boston, I'll continue to work on connecting the emerging neurotechnology firms with the investors in order to help make some of these dreams a reality back here in SF. As Alan Kay said in 1971, "the best way to predict the future is to invent it."
