The Foresight 3.0 program now turns to the ‘real world’ of cities and regions, places and spaces: and the question of how to apply this unique form of knowledge to policy and planning (sometimes called ‘strategic policy intelligence’).
Long-range city & regional policy and planning is all about the future – but is typically trapped in the present, “fighting the last war not the next” – so how to raise the game? This interactive Conversation explores how a next-generation Foresight-city/region 3.0 can enhance the ‘collective city/region intelligence’, and its applications in public policy and corporate strategy. With the added challenge of the pandemic, critical questions are raised –
- How would a Foresight-city/region 3.0 work in 2050, in Moscow, Manchester or similar?
- What can we learn from the Covid-19 pandemic?
- Which pathways can lead towards a ‘collective city/region intelligence’ for strategic planning and policy?
This session will review the state of the art, and set up a series of pilot projects for the next phase of co-production.

Previous sessions: 3 scoping conversations in 2020 have explored the possibilities of a Foresight 3.0 or ‘collective anticipatory intelligence’… (see the foresight 3-0 materials). So the aim is now to focus on practical analysis and action.
