Why is the future important?

The accelerating pace of technology creation and adoption continues to impact individuals and organizations in every field. Futurism formalizes the strategic response to change and generally focuses on the timeframe 5-20 years from the present, particularly anticipating disruptive change and contemplating a variety of future scenarios for which to be prepared.

A growing number of U.S. military branches, non-profit organizations and corporations have created internal Futures Groups to evaluate and ready themselves for the future. In the education sector, there is a growing number of institutions offering MS and PhD graduate programs in Futures Studies and Strategic Foresight.
