I know this may be a stretch for Hillary, both in terms of timing, and possibly priorities, but I thought I'd ask what you think. I'm working to develop a new event about technology and the future of the economy, tentatively entitled WTF? (What's the Future? :-) in San Francisco November 12-13, which I'm co-hosting with Andy McAfee of MIT, co-author of the book The Second Machine Age. My ideas are also deeply influenced by Nick Hanauer, who I think CAP may have worked with on some of the concepts of Middle Out Economics. Satya Nadella (CEO of Microsoft), Andy Rubin, Reid Hoffman, Evan Williams of Twitter and Medium, Travis Kalanick of Uber, Logan Green of Lyft, and many others have agreed to join the program. I'm also in conversations with other business leaders from outside Silicon Valley, including Jeff Immelt at GE, Tom Pritzker at Hyatt and Howard Schultz at Starbucks (with whom I worked on a Markle report about the future of the economy, which was one of the triggers for this event.) It's shaping up to be a great event. Seeing some of the back and forth between Hillary and Elizabeth Warren, and the importance of understanding the future of the economy, especially how technology is changing the job market, I had this thought that this might be a really interesting venue for Hillary to make an appearance. The event will feature a lot of Silicon Valley heavy hitters (and we might even be able to organize a fundraiser at the same time), and I think that it's important that folks out in the Valley hear Hillary's message. (For what it's worth, Elizabeth Warren is speaking at the Re/Code event in June, which will be targeted at somewhat the same audience.) Let me know if this is worth pursuing. I'm also wondering if there is anyone involved with the Middle Out Economics effort at CAP that I ought to be reaching out to. Thanks. For reference, I've included a brief summary outlining some of the themes and focus of the program below. *WTF?* The first industrial revolution led to profound economic disruption, followed only decades later by a century of enormous progress and prosperity. Now, in the second industrial revolution, led by remarkable new progress in digital technology, we are once again facing an immense social transformation in the nature of work. New kinds of automation are removing or redefining white collar jobs, and digital technology, culture, as business models pervade not only media but every kind of business. At the same time, innovation will create undreamed of new kinds of jobs, as technology is harnessed to make humans more productive, and able to tackle the world’s great challenges. Technological progress changes the business world, and the world. Steam power gave us factories, railroads, and industrial capitalism. Electricity ushered in the assembly line, the elevator, and movie stars. Internal combustion led to cars, jets, suburbs, and beach vacations. So far the digital revolution has given us etail, warehouse robots, artificial intelligence, and the peer economy. And it’s only just getting started. We all believe that the biggest changes are still ahead, and that every industry and every organization will have to transform itself in the next few years, in multiple ways, or fade away. But until now there’s been no event dedicated to these changes -- no focused, high-level conversation about the deep ways in which computers and their kin are transforming how we do business, how we work, and how we live. Just about everyone’s asking *WTF?* (“what’s the future?”), but answers have been hard to come by. That’s why we’re launching WTF? as an executive level event, similar in style to O’Reilly’s past Web 2.0 Summit, which provided clarity and focus to the transformation of Silicon Valley after the dotcom bust. Our goal is to shed light on the transformation in the nature of work now being driven by algorithms, big data, robotics, and the emerging peer economy. WTF is where the geeks meet the suits, and where the incumbents and upstarts come together to talk about what’s happening, and more importantly what’s going to happen. Our speakers include Silicon Valley visionaries and high tech CEOs, and also leaders from the rest of the economy: the industries that are being transformed by technological progress. We’ll also hear from the top academics and other thought leaders who study these issues. And we’ll highlight sharp new talent -- people you might not have heard of before who are doing amazing things. Some of the themes we are exploring include: AI and white collar jobs (The Race Against the Machine) Advanced manufacturing and re-shoring Augmented Reality in the Workplace Networks and the Nature of the Firm (the Uber/AirBnb Economy) Workers in a world of “continuous partial employment” Security in a connected world The data-driven business The attention economy The event will be held November 12 and 13 at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco. Attendance will be by invitation only, and is expected to consist of approximately 1000 senior executives, VCs, policy-makers, and entrepreneurs. _____________________________________________ Tim O'Reilly, CEO O'Reilly Media 1005 Gravenstein Highway North, Sebastopol, CA 95472 mobile 707-953-2280; office 707-827-7150; fax 707-823-9746 http://www.oreilly.com; http://radar.oreilly.com; @timoreilly
