![]() ![]() Our members and guests shared with us their comments that Sir George’s remarks were fascinating and thought provoking, which we agree! He kindly spent quite a bit of time meeting our attendees after his presentation. As we learned after his presentation, this has already occurred earlier this year knocking out several satellites. Sir George spoke about privacy issues and the importance of cyber security but there is one thing that we would not have control over and that is the threat of solar flares and how they can interrupt the technology flow. That is important to spend time outdoors observing nature and our surroundings. I was happy to hear him say that technology is good for our children, but it shouldn’t take the place of spending quality time playing and interacting with them one on one. The tree of life diagram really was telling on how we are just a blip in time and how fast technology has become a part of our everyday life. “Admiral Sir George Zambellas did not disappoint! His remarks about the effects of technology on the way we now think were spot on. Gina Stewart, Executive Director of BWI Partnership said of the lecture: Comments included phrases such as “thought-provoking”, “insightful” and “interesting”.Īfter listening to the lecture, one participant commented “it is a brave new world in which we are already immersed, interesting to see what it looks like in the next 10 to 20 years“. The lecture was a resounding success, seemingly enjoyed by all. Unsurprisingly, numerous searching questions followed from what comprised of a large number of senior business ambassadors. He went on to suggest that technology might eventually look after itself – and look after humans – at least for as long as we are useful! After a paltry 300,000 years or so of existence – on a 4 billion year old planet – we humans see ourselves inevitably at the centre of the next phase of evolution. Sir George Zambellas suggested that, as a species, we’re rather self-centred. He described the partnership as the first ever technology-centric bud on the human branch of the evolutionary tree – an indicator of the possible self-determined evolution of technology. Sir George laid out a challenging vision as to where this human-technology partnership may lead. Themes that are emerging because of our rapidly evolving relationship with, and dependency on, technology. In his lecture, Sir George Zambellas teased out some of the themes that he believes are emerging in our human behavioural evolution.

Sir George emphasised the need to accept mistakes as a positive learning experience, and that changing or pivoting the direction of innovation is entirely natural.
