The world needs visionary leaders who can navigate the future of tech to solve global challenges like climate change and healthcare. The Equitech Futures Institute in Oxford (EFI-Oxford) will bring together aspiring technology leaders from around the world. Established as an extension of the #TechAndSocietyForum created in collaboration with the Rhodes Trust, EFI-Oxford is a four-week intensive summer program that will cultivate a network of future entrepreneurs, researchers, and civic leaders equipped to use emerging technologies to tackle global challenges. Our curriculum breaks down traditional disciplinary barriers and approaches technological education through computational, systems, and ethical lenses. Applications open on January 8, 2025!
