We reward excellence, restrain recklessness, and create community to promote beneficial uses of these technologies and reduce misuse and accidents potentially associated with them.Foresight Programs in nanotechnology, biotechnology, computer science, space technology, neurotech, foresight.To translate the expertise of 10+ years of technical competitions for advancing biotechnology, nanotechnology, and computation into consistent long-term progress, Foresight Institute leads year-long strategy groups. Foresight also hosts technical in-person workshops in these areas. Invited participants included leading scientists, entrepreneurs and institutional allies connected by a virtual community and meet monthly online to focus on advancing a crucial aspect of their field, prompted by invited guest speakers. The goal is to develop concrete projects for solving foundational problems in each field open for governmental and philanthropic funding, or investment.Nanotechnology Program: Molecular Machines Group A group of scientists, entrepreneurs, and institutional allies who cooperate to make progress on molecular machines. Connected by a virtual group, this program advances the work of those working to create atomically precise applications in energy, medicine, and materials science toward Feynmans vision of molecular nanotechnology.Longevity Program: Health Extension Group This group of scientists, entrepreneurs, and institutional allies meets monthly to cooperate in spurring field-wide progress on technologies that fight aging and increase human healthspan. AI Cyberspace Program: Intelligent Cooperation GroupA group of experts in computer science, cryptography, AI, and related fields, connected by a virtual group, who cooperate on applying these tools to build a future defined by intelligent cooperation and seek decentralized defenses against automated physical and digital threats.Neurotech: Improving Cognition. A group of scientists, entrepreneurs, and institutional allies who cooperate to make progress on neurotech. Connected by a virtual group, this program advances the work of those working to advancing beneficial short-term and long-term neurotechnology applications.Space: A group of scientists, entrepreneurs, and institutional allies who cooperate to make progress on space tech. Connected by a virtual group, this program advances the work of those working for both near-term applications to long-term exploration. 22294 Fellowships and Feynman PrizesTechnology prizes have helped push the envelope in developing enabling technology and achieving milestones. Foresight awards are several of the premier research awards in the nanotechnology field, including the Feynman Prizes in Nanotechnology (one each for Experiment and Theory) and the Foresight Distinguished Student Award. In addition, the Foresight Feynman Grand Prize will be awarded to the first person or group to meet specific criteria for constructing nanoscale devices, a key milestone in developing molecular manufacturing methods and devices. In 2023 we launched the Norm Hardy Prize for usable computer security. In 2017 Foresight launched the Foresight Fellowship, a supportive program to support ten selected innovators in realizing their ideas, focusing on molecular machine nanotechnology, longevity, AI, neurotech, spacetech and cyberspace. 2286433 true true false false false false false false false false true false false true true false false false false true true false false false false false false true true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 26 0 true 8 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 3 3 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true true true false false false CA X X Sherry Hull 6502890860 101A Clay St Box 185 San Francisco CA 94111 Allison Duettmann CEO 40.00 0.00 X 216000 0 8696 Beatrice Erkers COO 40.00 0.00 X 117348 0 0 Brandon Goldman Treasurer 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Sonia Arrison Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 James C Bennett Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Chip Morningstar Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Dean Tribble Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 333348 8696 2 false true false 0 2917305 1123867 2917305 Conference & Event Income 333833 333833 333833 14816 14816 0 311 311 0 1124473 896350 228123 228123 228123 0 0 0 Miscellaneous Income 60167 60167 Rebates 1646 1646 Reimbursements 812 812 62625 3557013 624581 15127 743659 743659 113250 113250 0 0 342044 256033 35205 50806 0 313471 240978 72493 18696 15348 2052 1296 10047 995 9052 36689 27595 6674 2420 0 9034 9034 25686 25686 0 0 0 65360 37160 28200 10147 10147 0 68407 60827 7580 0 0 46973 38049 8924 0 0 0 0 0 9291 6457 2834 Event expenses 561663 561663 Other Direct Program Expenses 163532 163532 Bank charges 45535 7456 38079 Supplies 31355 15 31340 8245 3269 828 4148 2623084 2286433 270401 66250 X 180643 1322595 0 145556 0 0 0 0 0 0 51485 51484 614 1 1288851 1069745 0 0 0 560709 542010 2030817 3079907 102824 43708 8731 11884 111555 55592 X 1607136 2611593 312126 412722 1919262 3024315 2030817 3079907 933929 171124 X false true X true false X 428316 476080 1558371 2382693 2771749 7617209 0 0 428316 476080 1558371 2382693 2771749 7617209 1537555 6079654 27673 15797 41191 17374 243250 345285 0 1520 324 4583 62624 69051 8031545 65435 0.75700 0.85120 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 6654 6653 1 44831 44831 1 Rounding 1 542010 Accrued Expenses Other 2355 Credit cards payable 2153 Retirement plan payable 7376 11884 true Stockholm, Sweeden 0 1 Marketing and Management Marketing and Management 0 1 1 false false false false false false Part I, Line 2 - Grantmakers Explanation For Monitoring Use of Funds Outside US Committee reviews nominations for the research and technology prizes.
