Thought-provoking read: Sohail lnayatullah's 'Deconstructing and Reconstructing the Future'

Quite old but still very relevant about conceptualising the future. Are we actually engaging with an open future or just projecting the present upon something that is unknowable?

Cool initiatives. But, with 'only' 17M euros, we're not going to save the Dutch innovation position we're so proud of

Could be saving something else tho...
