Established in 2022, this immersive program was designed to equip decision-makers in science, diplomacy and business with the anticipatory knowledge, tools, and networks to navigate the intersection of science, diplomacy, and global governance. This annual event provides a platform for exploring how scientific breakthroughs can be anticipated and leveraged for the benefit of society in a world accelerated by science and technology.
Identify the frontier advances in science and tech that will fundamentally redefine markets, policy, and global strategy
Stress-test your current decision-making models against the next 5, 10 and 25 years horizon of exponential change
Learn how to integrate science anticipation into strategic decision-making and global governance using Anticipatory Leadership Lab methodology
Engage with science and technology leaders, policymakers, and representatives from international organizations, private sector, academia and NGOs
This programme is designed for mid-career professionals committed to shaping the future of science, policy, and diplomacy within their regions and institutions.
Hosted at the historic Palais des Nations, the day begins with an immersion into the heart of international diplomacy. The program introduces the fundamentals of anticipatory science diplomacy, offering a framework to map the interface between science, policy, and business
The day focuses on the practical application of emerging technologies through immersive simulations and data-driven tools. Participants engage in a neurotechnology diplomacy game to navigate future ethical and geopolitical crises.
This day focuses on the leadership skills and strategic foresight required to manage global security risks. Participants engage in interactive workshops on strategic anticipation, moving from theoretical future-scanning to concrete policy action.
CERN day explores the practical application of science diplomacy within a major international research infrastructure. Participants engage with senior leaders to understand how fundamental research and open science serve as a bridge for global cooperation. Includes a field visit to CERN's experiments
The final day focuses on synthesizing the week’s insights into individual and collective action. Participant join global community of anticipatory leaders ready to apply learned strategies in their own regions
The program includes dedicated sessions for organizations wishing to partner GESDA to implement the anticipatory leadership methodology into their institutions’ curricula and/or talent development strategies. Participants will be equipped with adaptable GESDA content and tools, to be able to multiply impact within their institutions and regions.
The program is based on GESDA’s worldwide experience in leading anticipatory leadership training for top government, academic and business leaders. GESDA brings together professionals with diverse backgrounds from around the world to bridge mindsets that rarely interact in depth.
The program is informed by GESDA’s anticipatory insight on upcoming scientific and technological breakthroughs with major social impact and strategic relevance.
The GESDA Science Breakthrough Radar® is built on expert curation from a global community of 2400+ scientists from over 90 countries. It provides an overview of trends at 5, 10 and 25 years in 42 scientific topics.
The Radar helps leaders to:
The Radar has already supported key multilateral processes in International Geneva, from a neurotechnology resolution at the Human Rights Council, to the biosecurity implications of synthetic biology, or the applications of quantum algorithms to support the SDGs through the Open Quantum Institute, hosted at CERN.
