    Our shared ambition was to imagine a vision that is grounded in reality and lived experience, yet bold enough to inspire the next decade of foresightโ€™s contribution to R&I.

    Discussions flowed through several stages:
    ๐ŸŒ reflecting on todayโ€™s foresight landscape, particularly within R&I in Europe
    ๐Ÿ”Ž identifying likely drivers of change for R&I in society by 2040
    ๐Ÿงญ probing the forces that could reshape foresight itself by 2040 and finally,
    ๐Ÿš€ envisioning the role and capabilities foresight will need to support R&I in 2040.

    A vision document capturing the outcomes of the workshop will be shared in due course, once the many insights, contributions, and reflections have been carefully woven together.
