There is no shortage of big problems facing humanity, but there is a shortage of passionate and ambitious founders trying to solve them. However, more than ever before, entrepreneurs building "Frontier Technology" can truly change the world. There is incredible potential for private enterprises to make a real financial and societal impact across sectors like Biotech and Healthcare, Food and Water, Energy, Transportation, Artificial Intelligence, Space Exploration, and more. At the "Frontier Founders Forum", you can meet and hear from entrepreneurs tackling the major problems of humanity, and maybe even learn how you can start harnessing your passion and ambition to do the same. This week we will discuss how to build a space company.
