Let’s create
True Future Value.
Value that lasts beyond the next quarter. For people, for organisations and for the world they share.
The future belongs to everyone. Together we build a future worth living. Now and for generations to come. Insight, skill and motivation make the difference.
We create space to step out of the daily routine, see what is not visible yet and make it crystal clear which smallest move has the biggest impact.
Deep Dives, breakthrough days, futures sessions and inspiring Smart Moves that turn new perspectives straight into your next best action.
Step out of the daily business. Step into what is next.
Plato founded his Academy outside the busy city of Athens. A place for dialogue, reflection and thought experiments. A place to make sense of the world, imagine alternatives and discover new ways forward.
The idea behind our Academy today:
See the difference, to make a difference.
We create an in between space: between what is and what could be. Where people step outside their daily routines, challenge their thinking, connect unexpected ideas and discover room to act. Not to escape reality, but to change it.
Because new perspectives only matter when they lead to new possibilities, meaningful initiatives and lasting impact.
We create the space.
You make the move.
The future belongs
to everyone.
It is our conviction that we need everyone on board for building a future worth living.
Not as a dreamy statement about a love for the strange and the outliers, but as a necessity for what it takes to keep a society able to change, adapt and survive.
Innovation is never the accomplishment of one person. Genius is a collective power of many.
We need colourful people and ideas: the odd ones out, the ones that don't fit the average bill, because that is where the unexpected, overlooked changes come from, the ones that solve the challenges ahead.
So we set out to unlock, share and democratise the knowledge and methods that help you challenge your own thinking, come up with unconventional solutions and inspire others to follow your lead.
We empower the passionate, the curious, the new, the young, the change makers and the vulnerable, so they can all become a force of nature in building positive futures.
In short, we challenge you to see what is not visible yet:
See the difference to make a difference!
The making of
the futures
The Futures Academy is a living lab, continuously in development. Founder Arjan Postma on beautiful accidents, the Jingu principle and why future proof is a dead end.
“I would rather compare the Futures Academy to the blockchain than to a classic company.”
