Happy International Women’s Day!!!
Lot’s happening for the week in the tower in SF. Would be great to have someone championing this in London so we can be bigger and better than them next year ;)
if this or you or someone you know, let me know!!!
We are Londonmaxxing !!! 🇬🇧
Great to see some old and new faces at the pub on Monday.
I was in a club on a Tuesday night learning about skills.sh. Central St. Martins the next day watching real neurons play games. A pretty wild week of events that show’s little sign of slowing down.
Last week I gave an optimistic outlook on automation - a 15 hour work week. This week surfaced one of the more concerning futures.
But the good news is we’re very close to having a building we can camp out in during the apocalypse. Or we could step up and shape the future…
A great space to do this would be running the BioTech floor of frontiertower. A lot is progressing this month; now is the time to commit to leading a floor. If you want to know more, get in touch!
Have a vision for something new in the London ecosystem? Want to host an event? Want to lead a floor?
Say hi in the WhatsApp group - or speak to Lachlan.

I made a website - london.frontiertower.io

After Hours Salon: The Future of Work
It’s also time for the next After Hours Salon. The same winning format. We’ll start the discussion amongst a few sector specialists then let it propagate into informal chats.

The People have spoken and we will be debating:
Will we finally see the 15 hour work week? The Singularity and the Future of Work.
Almost 100 years ago Keynes predicted that technology would lead to a 15 hour work week, largely for our own sanity. We have not seen it. Might AI finally usher it in?
