Biography
David W. Wood, D.Sc., was one of the pioneers of the smartphone industry. He is now a futurist writer, educator, consultant, and speaker. As Chair of London Futurists, David has organised over 300 public meetings since March 2008 on futurist and technoprogressive topics. Membership of London Futurists currently exceeds 9,700. David is also Executive Director of the LEV (Longevity Escape Velocity) Foundation, where the mission statement is "conducting and inspiring research to comprehensively cure and prevent human age-related disease". As Principal of the independent futurist consultancy and publisher Delta Wisdom, David helps clients around the world to anticipate and manage the dramatic impact of rapidly changing technology on human individuals and communities. This includes the NBIC technologies (nanotech, biotech, infotech, cognotech) of the fourth industrial revolution, and the emergence of AGI (artificial general intelligence) and resulting “singularity”. Previously, David spent 25 years designing, implementing, and trailblazing the use of smart mobile devices, including ten years with pioneering PDA manufacturer Psion PLC, and ten more with smartphone operating system specialist Symbian Ltd, which he co-founded in 1998. At different times, his executive responsibilities at Psion and Symbian included software development, technical consulting, partnering and ecosystem management, and research and innovation. By 2012, his software for UI and application frameworks had been included on 500 million smartphones from companies such as Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, Motorola, LG, Panasonic, Sharp, and Fujitsu. From 2010 to 2013, David was Technology Planning Lead (CTO) of Accenture Mobility, where he also co-led Accenture’s Mobility Health business initiative. David’s books include The Singularity Principles, Vital Foresight, Smartphones and Beyond, The Abolition of Aging, Sustainable Superabundance, and Transcending Politics. He has a triple first class mathematics degree from Cambridge and undertook doctoral research in the Philosophy of Science. He has an honorary Doctorate in Science from Westminster University.
