Author of the 2011 bookCommunicating with the Future,Futurist Speaker Thomas Frey is a powerful visionary who is revolutionizing ourthinking about thefuture.
The greatest value in understanding the future comes from spotting the major cultural, demographic, societal, and economic shifts early and translating them in to viable business strategies, says Tom.
Thomas continually pushes the envelope of understanding as part of the celebrity speaking circuit by creating fascinating images and understandings of the world to come. He has been fortunate enough to headline events along with some of todays most recognizable figures: Tom Peters, Nobel Peace Prize winner Mohammad Yunus;former CEO of General Electric, Jack Welch; former New York City Mayor Rudy Giulliani; Former President of Colombia, Andrs Pastrana; Prime Minister of Spain, Felipe Gonzlez Mrquez; Nobel Prize winning economist Joseph Stiglitz; Saudi PrinceTurki Al-Faisal; and former World Bank President James Wolfensohn.
As the Executive Director and Senior Futurist at the DaVinci Institute, he works closely with the Institutes Senior Fellows and Board of Visionaries to develop original research studies, which enables him to speak on unusual topics, translating trends into unique opportunities.
Because of his work inspiring inventors and other revolutionary thinkers, the Boulder Daily Camera has referred to him as the Father of Invention while The Denver Post and Seattle Post Intelligencer have referred to him as the Dean of Futurists.
Thomas has been featured in hundreds of articles for both national and international publications including New York Times, Huffington Post, Times of India, USA Today,US News and World Report, The Futurist Magazine, Morning Calm (in-flight magazinefor Korean Airlines), Skylife (in-flight magazine for Turkish Airlines), ColoradoBiz Magazine, Rocky Mountain News, and many more. He currently writes a weekly Future Trend Report newsletter and a weekly column for FuturistSpeaker.com.
Each year his talks touch the lives of tens of thousands of people. Here are some of his most popular topics, but dont feel restricted by this list. Every year he designs dozens of custom presentation based specifically around the needs of a particular audience.
In 2018, the Norwegian Nobel Committee, charged with selecting the winner of the famous Nobel Peace Prize, has decided to change the process they use for determining the winner. Rather than selecting the winner themselves, theyve decided to host a global election to allow the people of the world to decide which one of the candidates has done the best job of promoting global peace.
