The Thiel Foundation

Foundation Spotlight

The Thiel Foundation last night hosted its annual gathering of tech luminaries and radical philanthropy. At an invitation-only celebration at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Peter Thiel introduced guests to non-profit organizations that are changing the future. These non-profits included:

The Long Now Foundation, which sees the future in terms of millennia instead of a fiscal year
The Seasteading Institute, which enables opportunities for humanity to experiment with new ways of governance
The SENS Foundation, which rejects the ideology that aging is an inevitable part of living
The Singularity Institute, which is planning for a day when we create beings more intelligent than ourselves
Singularity University, which is educating business leaders and entrepreneurs to think boldly about the future
