Hi, I’m Azeem Azhar. I convene Exponential View to help us understand how our societies and political economy will change under the force of rapidly accelerating technologies.

🎈 It’s my birthday on Monday and Marija’s is this week too. So if you are wondering what to get us, please treat yourself to a copy of my new book, EXPONENTIAL. (The Exponential Age in the US and Canada.)

The book argues for a reframing of how we organise and run our economies and societies. Having read a lot of books in the realms of the political economy and technology, I’m pleased about some of the many novel insights that are in it. So do get a copy—it’ll be a wonderful happy birthday to us!
