invitation to join the n100 symposium
as a speaker, shaper & content creator
It is our distinguished pleasure to invite you
as a key speaker to the Next 100 Symposium 2021.
This will be the third edition of the unique event that brings together the realms of technology and the social sciences in 7 overarching Next 100 Areas:
-
Next 100 economy
-
next 100 technology
-
next 100 politics
-
next 100 science & innovation
-
next 100 defence & security
-
next 100 society

The symposium will take place in Prague, the Czech Republic on the 19th and 20th of May 2020.
N100 is the flagship Autumn working meeting of the Global Arena Research Institute bringing together subject interdisciplinarity as well as original useful content. We do not repeat the information and classic arguments heard at all discussions, we provide an environment to create new and applicable information and debate. A working dialogue about how to translate crisis-driven language into future-oriented ideas on a global scale and a vision of the next one hundred years.

It would be an honour to welcome you to the GARI and N100 network to shape the agenda, outcomes and vision of the Next 100. We do not just invite speakers to deliver an intervention to an audience, we invite creators to create the programme and stir the discussion at the Symposium with other speakers, participants and stakeholders from many sectors. Outcomes from the N100 as well as thorough research pre and post-event are compiled into useful outlets such as the Next 100 Living Report, GARI research publications, social media informative spotlights and more. We continue working with the material and insights our speakers provide throughout the year in mapping the global environment.
We fully appreciate the value of your time. The Next 100 Symposium truly becomes a transformative and pivotal global working meeting. If you have any questions about the programme or anything else, please don’t hesitate to write or call.

the CONCEPT 2021
2018 marked 100 years since the end of the First World War. In the aftermath of this human tragedy, the foundations for a multilateral global order were laid out. the parameters of this global order are losing relevance under the very condition that they helped create: a world of nearly limitless flows and interactions. 100 years later there was and is a need to design new international and interdisciplinary systems in our transformative global arena.
2019 markED 30 years of the democratic transitions in Europe. How shall we revive the future-oriented spirit that framed the exciting weeks and months of 1989-90, knowing the current concerns of sustainability, environment, globalisation, societal changes, digital and technological transformations? How do we connect with and curate the future with innovation, and how do we integrate and utilize new opportunities? GARI, for one, is using high tech methods for creating a revolutionary 'digital twin' of the globalised world.
2021 2020 is a time of unplanned change and adjustment to a common, yet uncharacterised enemy. Being able to react and adapt to anything means knowing as many variables and indicators as possible that transform conditions and opportunities. what opportunities are there? and how to seize them? the next 100 symposium provides a unique interdisciplinary platform bringing together experts and shapers of the global environment able to understand and create the elements determining whether we persevere, prosper or stay behind.
