"There is more to the future than flying cars and a faster Internet. At the heart of the future lies the soul of humanity." So believes Dr. Marcus T. Anthony who is a provocative futurist, intuitive analyst and author. An elected member of the World Futures Studies Federation and the prestigious Darwin Project Council - a think tank comprising many leading futurists, academics, philosophers and scientists, Dr. Marcus speaks passionately about a wide array of subject matters including the futures of human civilization; education, learning and intelligence; consciousness studies and spirituality; the philosophy of science; and the development of China and Asia. While most futurists today, focus on economics and technological innovation, Dr. Marcus extends his thinking to far more profound realms.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.*
