The theme of this year’s event is “Re-DESIGN our future society”, as we gather online to reflect on what we have lost-or-gained from experiencing the COVID-19 disaster, and in re-drawing the post-COVID future society. The event consists of two keynote speeches followed by workshop style group discussions consisting of 3 to 4 participants, and at the end of the event, participants will write a letter to their future self.
The two keynote speeches will be offered by Professor Yuki Yamaguchi, a member of DLab at Tokyo Tech, and Mr. Michiaki Matsushima, editor-in-chief of WIRED Japan.
Simultaneous English translation for both keynotes will be available.

What is DLab?

Developments in science and technology offer us infinite possibilities for a better tomorrow. By gauging the needs and desires of society through dialogue with the public, and by designing our future together, DLab aims to create a brighter, more prosperous world.
DLab hosts workshops and other events that initiate discussions on future society among Tokyo Tech faculty, staff, students, alumni, and members of the public. Once an image of the future has been established, DLab seeks out and openly shares elements required to realize this image, encouraging society to progress together towards shared goals.
