  • Lift is a series of events to inspire and connect the community of doers and thinkers exploring the social impact of new technologies. Each Lift conference is a three-day experience made of talks, workshops, interactive art and discussions to understand and anticipate the most important social changes, and meet the people behind them. Lift has been called by BBC News "one of the highlights of the technophile calendar", "an opportunity to meet up with some of the most interesting people around and engage in debate about the future with those who are actually building it instead of waiting for it happen". There have been seven events held, four in Geneva, one in Seoul, one in Jeju Island (South Korea), and one in Marseille. Lift was founded by Laurent Haug and three co-founders (Nicolas Nova, Steven Ritchey, John Staehli), and is organized by an international team with the support of organizations like Mozilla, the IEC, Microsoft and the European Commission.
