Singularity University’s Executive Program

7 Comments

Between November 7 and 15, Singularity University is holding an Executive Program that looks to “educate, inform and prepare executives to recognize the opportunities and disruptions at the intersections of industry and exponentially growing technologies.” A number of world-class professors and executives will serve as the program’s instructors.

The program encompasses a variety of subjects, including Nanotechnology, Energy/Environmental Systems, Biotechnology and Informatics, Artificial Intelligence and Robots, and more. We’ll be using this page as a catalog of the video content produced during the event, which will include full lectures as well as a number of 1-on-1 videos with some of the instructors. Note that there is a delay on getting the videos processed, so we will continue updating this page after the event has ended.
