It does not seek to disrupt nor 'innovate'. ReclaimFutures is not about the latest technologies, design trends or most exciting new startup incubator. It's not even about so-called 'ethical tech'. + +## — What ? + +Instead, ReclaimFutures (RF) aims to inspect, interrogate and expose the neoliberal forces at play within communication technology and startup culture, whilst championing radical thinkers and creators. In short reclaim futures is a conference for all the creators and thinkers attempting to smash, replace, and escape capitalism though acts of resistance in all their forms. + +RF aims to foster an environment where creative and engaged artists, philosophers, technologists, activists, hackers, researchers and educators can collectively assemble to imagine new futures, beyond the walls of capitalistic limitation and stage the question of what we can do next, big or small to achieve political and/or social transformation in these troubled times in our species history. + +Over the course of 3 days in spring 2020 the inaugural edition of ReclaimFutures will be held at a to-be-confirmed location in the city of Lausanne, Switzerland.
