"The Future Of Entrepreneurship: Living in Exponential Creativity" was keynoted by Donohue and Marx Hubbard at Singularity University's Global Summit.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Over 1,600 entrepreneurs, corporations, development organizations, governments, investors and academic institutions from over 64 countries met at the Singularity University (SU) Global Summit to learn more about the application of rapidly accelerating technology to large-scale global issues.

Founded by Peter Diamandis and Ray Kurzweil in 2008, SU is named for Kurzweil's theory of "technological singularity," which suggests nanotechnology and biotechnology (artificial intelligence, robotics and digital biology) will reshape the fabric of society, including human life, intelligence and the global economy.  

One of the most thought-provoking discussions from the 108 speakers was "The Future of Entrepreneurship: Living in Exponential Creativity," which was presented by Mark Donohue, venture capitalist, teacher, author and founder and CEO of LifeGuides https://lifeguides.com and Barbara Marx Hubbard, a space program pioneer, social and scientific theorist and author of Conscious Evolution.

Donohue and Marx Hubbard presented how we are currently experiencing the greatest "tipping point" crisis in human history. We have the opportunity for creators, leaders, entrepreneurs and visionaries within the exponential technologies to support and build solutions to our biggest crises on the planet. This is a new era in which "evolutionary entrepreneurs" co-create and modify life solutions alongside naturally occurring development.

Donohue and Marx Hubbard posed a series of important questions to their audience that consisted of key leaders from companies like Google, Microsoft, General Electric, Goldman Sachs, Intel and Coca-Cola:

• What is the meaning of this new power?

• What future do you choose?

• For what purpose did nature build you?

• Are you choosing evolution by choice, or by chance?
