Course Overview

Comparative Innovation Ecosystems :Europe v Silicon Valley

Continental Europe today serves as the core model for regional innovation economies and ecosystems around the world. Key structural elements of this model include family-owned enterprises, public universities, a strong State role, and a focus on traditional industries, especially manufacturing, commerce and agriculture. Silicon Valley, in contrast, is the leading exception globally to the dominant European model. As Europe faces growing competition from China and the US in computing and artificial intelligence (AI), are its traditional science, industry and growth platforms adequate to secure Europe’s future competitiveness, prosperity, sustainability and societal well-being? What lessons does Europe offer for Silicon Valley and Asia?

2019 08 30 WAYFINDER PURPOSE SYMPOSIUM FOR HIGHER EDUCATION

2019 WAYFINDER PURPOSE SYMPOSIUM
FOR HIGHER EDUCATION

STANFORD UNIVERSITY
PALO ALTO, CA
JULY 30-AUG 1, 2019

This summer, Project Wayfinder will gather a select group of 30 college educators to help shape the growing purpose learning movement in higher education. Explore the science and philosophy of purpose through three days of keynote talks, experiential workshops, and collaborative forums.

Project Wayfinder’s college purpose-learning toolkit is currently being prototyped at University of California, Berkeley, Stanford University, and Brown University. This summer we will share our tools and insights from our research and will invite attending educators to partner with us in piloting the curriculum in the upcoming school year. Click here for our FAQ on the Purpose Symposium.

Wayfinder’s college curriculum resonates with my students, guiding them to think critically about who they are, where they belong, and what matters. They felt an immediate emotional connection to the materials and benefit from frameworks that are grounded in science and embodied through practice.

WHO IS THE PURPOSE SYMPOSIUM FOR?

The symposium is open to college and university educators, administrators, deans, and counselors who are interested in bringing purpose education to their students. We recommend applying in groups of 2-3 educators from your institution.

Educating for purpose is an urgent need for the future of higher education. Purpose Learning transforms the classroom into a experiential laboratory for creating lives’ of impact. It will be what innovative schools use to stay ahead of the curve in the next 25 years.
