Demography of Europe
The Future Now Show November 2017 Demography of Europe withMichael Akerib Table of ContentHistory 1:16Now 25:52Migration 28:27Opportunities 48:58 Musings on the future are often quite narrow in scope (e.g. specific technologies) and time. The near future is obviously of great interest as it’s our next page, but it’s one page in a very long book and sometimes you need to read the whole book to get the best sense of what the next page might hold. That approach is taken here when considering the demographics of Europe – the story starts 9000 years ago and spans the planet. Sit back, soak it in, and only then wonder about the future.- Paul Holister The Future Now ShowCredits Michael Akerib, Rector, Swiss UMEF University. www.umef-university.ch Paul Holister, Editor, Summary Text
Happy Rain
The Future Now Show December 2017 Happy Rain with Isabelle Antunès Storytelling is a fundamental part of what makes humans successful. This is a story about how farming communities in Bangladesh were transformed by an idea that allowed them to profit from the monsoon season instead of migrating away and waiting for it to pass. But it’s also a story about a story, about the documentary that was made and how this has been woven in to the evolution and spread of this transformative idea. – Paul Holister Support and collaborations required to use Happy Rain to provide 5 million people with food, jobs and improved livelihood in floodplains!

Causalities and A.I.
The Future Now Show January 2018 Causalities and A.I. withHardy Schloerhosted bySimon Jones Big data and artificial intelligence (AI) are terms you’ll have been hearing a lot. They are often misused and poorly understood. So it’s nice to see a concrete example of what can be done with them. The key here is to use not only standard metadata (data describing data) but also metadata describing the causal relationships between the data. The result is insights that were you to ask humans to attempt would be unreliable, hugely variable and subject to prejudicial influences. A nice example of a case where we humans should step back and let the A.I. do the work. – Paul Holister The Future Now ShowCredits Hardy F SchloerOwner, Schloer Consulting Groupwww.schloerconsulting.comCEO, Prisma Analytics GmbHprisma-analytics.com Simon Jones, Pro-Vice-Chancellor, Cranfield University, UKwww.simon-jones.com Paul Holister, Editor, Summary Text

Do Banks have a Future?
The Future Now Show July 2018 Do Banks have a Future? withBrett Kinghosted byMiss Metaverse Once upon a time, people used to get paid with pieces of paper and coins – physical money – and take that to a building nearby, their bank branch, for safekeeping. Nowadays the idea of a physical bank branch is disappearing as it becomes increasingly irrelevant. And physical money is used less and less. Transactions are handled in near-real-time, increasingly initiated on smart phones. With the growing options in digital transactions and digitally based money, will banks even be needed in the future? – Paul Holister The Future Now ShowCredits Brett King, Bestselling Author, Speaker, Founder, Radio Host, TV Commentator, CEO of Movenhttp://brettking.com Katie Aquino, aka “Miss Metaverse”, Futurista™, USAhttps://www.facebook.com/missmetaverse Paul Holister, Editor, Summary Text Club of Amsterdamhttp://www.clubofamsterdam.com
