Primer18: A Speculative Futures Conference
PRIMER was created to prepare you for the future, and to equip you to help shape it.
In February 2017 we gathered designers from across the world in San Francisco, California to bring you our inaugural conference. In May 2018, we’re returning to bring you another world-class lineup fueled by the community and experts from a range of disciplines. While PRIMER was created as a platform for speculative design and foresight strategies, we welcome futurists, designers, architects, scientists, artists and other thought leaders to share their work, methodologies, frameworks, case studies, narratives, experiments and concepts that address the potential challenges and opportunities that the future holds.
PRIMER is a project of the Design Futures Initiative, a 501c3 nonprofit which produces the Speculative Futures meetups and has established chapters in San Francisco, Austin, New York, and Berlin and has over a thousand members worldwide.
- Thurs, May 3rd: Opening party/meetup
- Friday, May 4th: Speaker Conference Day (in Berkeley)
- Saturday, May 5th: Workshops (various locations: downtown San Francisco)
