What is Singularity University?
Singularity University is a benefit corporation that provides educational programs, innovative partnerships and a startup accelerator to help individuals, businesses, institutions, investors, NGOs and governments understand cutting-edge technologies, and how to utilize these technologies
to positively impact billions of people.
We are educators…
who draw on our Silicon Valley location to offer cutting edge programs:
The Global Solutions Program (GSP) – convenes future leaders, entrepreneurs, and technologists for 10 weeks to work on team-based technology solutions to widespread global challenges.
The Executive Program (EP) – dives into the tools that corporate specialists and entrepreneurs need to ride the wave of accelerating change.
Exponential Conferences – explore how exponentially accelerating technologies are impacting individual verticals, such as medicine, finance and manufacturing.
We also offer custom programs tailored to your needs.
Beyond the classroom, we are agents of change
Since our inception in 2008, SU has empowered individuals from more than 85 countries to apply exponentially growing technologies, such as biotechnology, artificial intelligence and neuroscience, to address humanity’s grand challenges: education, energy, environment, food, health, poverty, security, space and water. In just six years, our alumni, partners and members have generated more than 100 startups, and numerous patents and ideas
to help advance this mission.
We Inspire & Inform
We provide thoughtful coverage of singularity-related news through our sister site Singularity Hub – sharing our assessments of technological or scientific progress with our extended community of readers.
Coming
together,
we create
new futures.
In our SU Labs incubator, we launch companies that will impact the world of tomorrow. Our portfolio companies gain preferred access to our network of connections – necessary to build and launch sustainable organizations
