But, I am only a small island within an ecosystem of future impact - of changemakers, entrepreneurs and thought leaders who are re-framing the future every day. At the same time, I also have a love of unearthing, discovering and scaling the impact and amplifying the voices of these *agents provocateurs*. I cherish human dialogue - [asking thought-provoking questions](https://open.spotify.com/episode/5Y0vzIAxq3TYyX0dybL4vM?si=62a3d50da57a439d), curating conversations on and off stage, and weaving a compelling narrative through transformational conferences and strategy retreats. Enter the Futurist-in-Residence. In pure mathematical terms Futurist-in-Residence = (Keynote x MC)².  Since 2009 I have been working quietly with a select few clients as their Futurist-in-Residence - helping design conferences, mentor other speakers, moderate panels, creating branded content and MCing the full proceedings. Yes, it is deeply rewarding, meaningful and impactful work for me, but even more importantly our clients tell us that they derive immense value from the packaged services. That is why I wanted [to share this fresh Futurist-in-Residence demo video](https://thinque.wistia.com/medias/xc76ob67je) to showcase how this package might work for your next event, conference or strategy retreat. [Drop me a line and let me know what you think about it.](mailto:anders@thinque.com) ![](https://fast.wistia.com/embed/medias/xc76ob67je/swatch)   | | --- | |   | | --- | | As a futurist, I know that you want to be a transformation catalyst. In order to do that, you need to create transformational moments. The problem is that the pandemic changed the way we humans meet, connect and collaborate which makes you feel overwhelmed by the task of designing culture-shifting, digilogue events fit for the future. I believe you deserve to catalyse sustainable organisational change, personal growth and societal impact. As a keynote speaker, moderator and entrepreneur I understand the post-pandemic trends and implications for the meetings and events industry which is why we co-design award-winning thought leadership brand campaigns, curate conference stories and design business science fiction narratives that win digital minds and analogue hearts for brands like Adobe, Dyson, Meta, Microsoft, McKinsey and American Express. Here is how we do it: 1. [Schedule a HD/HIFI virtual meeting](https://meetings.hubspot.com/anders1) with futurist Anders Sörman-Nilsson from our custom-built broadcast studio 2. Receive a tailored conference design proposal to take the headaches out of your internal pitch 3. [Book Anders as your futurist-in-residence](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/) to keynote, MC and moderate your next conference or strategy retreat. ![220314_Anders-29645](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/hs-fs/hubfs/220314_Anders-29645.jpg?width=2048&name=220314_Anders-29645.jpg)   | | --- | ![Screen Shot 2022-09-15 at 3.50.14 pm](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202022-09-15%20at%203.50.14%20pm.png?width=953&name=Screen%20Shot%202022-09-15%20at%203.50.14%20pm.png) Topics: [Sustainability Futurist](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/sustainability-futurist), [Conference MC](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/conference-mc), [Futurist-in-Residence](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/futurist-in-residence) ![Anders](https://app.hubspot.com/settings/avatar/d614bfaf05c76fba53508b0a7f68214b) ### Written by [Anders](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/author/anders) ** ### Sign up for the Decoding Tomorrow newsletter ### CATEGORIES - [Anders Sorman-Nilsson](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/anders-sorman-nilsson) - [Futurist Speaker Sydney](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/futurist-speaker-sydney) - [Thinque](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/thinque) - [Disruptive Trends](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/disruptive-trends) - [Future Thinking](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/future-thinking) - [Thought Leaders](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/thought-leaders) - [Artificial Intelligence](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/artificial-intelligence) - [Futurist](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/futurist) - [Future Trends](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/future-trends) - [2nd Renaissance](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/2nd-renaissance) - [AI](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/ai) - [Sustainability](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/sustainability) - [2020 Vision](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/2020-vision) - [Disruption](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/disruption) - [AI Keynote Speaker](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/topic/ai-keynote-speaker) ### INDUSTRY - [Anders Sorman-Nilsson](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/futurist-in-residence-keynote-speaker-x-mc#) - [Futurist Speaker Sydney](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/futurist-in-residence-keynote-speaker-x-mc#) - [Thinque](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/futurist-in-residence-keynote-speaker-x-mc#) - [Disruptive Trends](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/futurist-in-residence-keynote-speaker-x-mc#) - [Thought Leaders](https://www.anderssorman-nilsson.com/blog/futurist-in-residence-keynote-speaker-x-mc#) ### RECENT FORESIGHTS [** ](https://www.facebook.com/thinquetank/) [** ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anderssormannilsson/) [** ](https://www.youtube.com/user/andersofthinque) [** ](https://twitter.com/asormannilsson) [** ](https://www.instagram.com/andersbygeorgsorman/) ### ANDERS SÖRMAN-NILSSON #### FUTURIST.
