TNTY is an on-going industry gathering which explores both online and at live events, emerging trends and scenarios we might expect to witness in the next two decades. The lecture and showcase series has been an industry insider’s preview of the future since 1996. The live show was started to engage industry leaders, press, policy makers, VCs, and industry analysts in a longer-range exploration of what lies ahead.

TNTY live shows themselves, took a sabbatical while our executive producer Bob Ayres worked on launching and establishing THE TED PRIZE for The TED Conference and for his Board work with the progressive award winning community radio station KVMR-FM in Nevada City, Ca.

Beginning in 2010 TNTY will bring back our original TNTY Reception Salons- a “more intimate” by invitation only small cocktail reception. These receptions of industry executives and entrepreneurs will be held in private residences.

Beginning Fall of 2011, TNTY will re-launch its larger San Francisco-based lecture series. Initial topic area will center on “After the Climate changes” : a look at business, cultural and technology challenges and investment opportunities in the Next 20 Years as well as a symposium on Boomer /economic related issues .
