Peter Diamandis is the Founder & Executive Chairman of the XPRIZE Foundation (www.xprize.org), the world's leading large-scale incentive competition that produced human spaceflight technology; the Executive Founder of Singularity University (su.org), a graduate-level Silicon Valley institution that counsels on growing technologies; and a co-Founder of BOLD Capital Partners, a venture fund with $250M investing in exponential technologies. An academic, entrepreneur, and an author, Diamandis holds a degree in Molecular Genetics and Aerospace Engineering from MIT and an M.D. from Harvard Medical School; has started over 20 companies in the areas of longevity, space, venture capital and education; and has published two books, "Abundance: The Future Is Better Than You Think" and "BOLD: How to go Big, Create Wealth & Impact the World."

In this talk, Peter sits down with Jack Hidary, Director of AI and Quantum at X (formerly Google X), to discuss the growth of exponential technologies and how they will impact the world. Diamandis touches on everything from XPRIZE and the science of incentivizing teams to innovate to human longevity, genome sequencing, and a world in which people in the most remote places are brought online and connected to the global economy.
