FUTEUR 2035 is a project designed to get us thinking – what might the world look like in 2035 and what influences it?

Looking across the areas of PESTEL (Political, Economic, Societal, Environmental and Legal) the activity explores the impact of growing trends on society as a whole.

Designed to be used to spark conversations when thinking about the future – and what challenges might be faced – in order to generate ideas and explore opportunities.

The activity is growing all the time, so please do check back to see more scenarios, more options and even the chance to build your own version of the future.
