The Conference on the Emerging Technologies That Matter

EmTech MIT is where technology, business, and culture converge. It’s the showcase for emerging technologies with the greatest potential to change our lives. It’s an access point to the most innovative people and companies in the world. Most of all, it is a place of inspiration—an opportunity to glimpse the future and begin to understand the technologies that matter and how they’ll change the face of business and drive the new global economy.

A Tradition in Technology

For almost 115 years, MIT Technology Review has been identifying important new technologies and deciphering their practical impact. We’ve brought that mission and our journalism to life through EmTech since 1999, gathering the sharpest minds in the technology, engineering, academic, startup, and management communities to provide insight into the innovations that shape the world and your business.

Simon Johnson's video is a must watch. Former chief economist at the IMF warning about the backlash that will be felt by cryptocurrencies when the current fiat system collapses. This guy understands the significance of hard money like gold and puts bitcoins right in that same category. Love it! Get ready for a political war.
