I found the future in manure!!

On Monday, I'll be the luncheon keynote luncheon speaker at ICE - The Tech Conference in Edmonton.

My topic? "I Found the Future in Manure: How to Capitalize on the Rapid Evolution of Science"

Here's the description for my talk:

"In the last decade, the world has seen the emergence of a globally connected scientific mind. The impact is dramatic -- while there are 19 million known chemical substances today, it is estimated that by 2025 there will be some 300 million -- and 5 billion by 2100. As Apple learned with the iPod, the discovery of a single new chemical substance can lead to the emergence of a billion dollar market, literally overnight. Since science is at the heart of every industry -- and with such rates of discovery, innovation abounds. Join leading international futurist, trends and innovation expert Jim Carroll as he explores the impact of hyper-science, and what it means in terms of bio-tech, nanotech and everything-tech. What does this have to do with manure? Join Jim and find out!

If you search my Web site a bit, you'll find the article that brought this whole topic up.

Oh, and for the fun of it, I'm going to explain the relationship between manure, a '57 Chevy, and transportation in the year 2016.

Seriously.
