Futurist speaker Peter H. Diamandis is a physician, engineer, and serial entrepreneur recognized worldwide for his work at the intersection of space, longevity, and exponential technologies. Founder and executive chairman of the XPRIZE Foundation, which designs large-scale incentive competitions to drive breakthroughs in fields from spaceflight to healthspan, he is also the executive founder of Singularity University and, in his own words, on a mission to create a world of abundance.
Over three decades, Diamandis has launched or co-founded more than 25 companies across commercial space, genomic medicine, venture capital, and advanced diagnostics, including Human Longevity Inc., Celularity, Vaxxinity, Fountain Life, and BOLD Capital Partners. Named by Fortune one of the “World’s 50 Greatest Leaders,” he champions an “exponential mindset” and helps executives turn emerging science into concrete business opportunity. He also hosts MOONSHOTS, a top-ranked podcast followed by millions of entrepreneurs and innovators.
As an author, Diamandis has shaped how a global audience thinks about the future through the New York Times bestsellers Abundance, Bold, The Future Is Faster Than You Think, and Life Force, along with his Longevity Guidebook, a practical roadmap for extending healthspan. His optimism is increasingly public: in 2026 he launched the $3.5 million Future Vision XPRIZE, a global competition to inspire hopeful, technology-positive storytelling, and a new conference, the Moonshot Gathering, for the next generation of entrepreneurs.
As a speaker, Peter Diamandis gives audiences a structured way to think about disruption and a clear sense of what is coming next in AI, robotics, and human longevity. He holds degrees in molecular genetics and aerospace engineering from MIT and an MD from Harvard, a foundation that grounds his data-driven optimism in rigorous science. Senior audiences leave with concrete steps they can take to participate in building an abundant future.
Peter Diamandis explores how fast-moving advances in biotechnology, diagnostics, and AI are redefining what it means to age. Drawing on his work in health optimization, he breaks down the innovations, from genome sequencing and cellular therapies to AI-driven prevention, that are making extended healthspan increasingly realistic, and shows how healthcare is shifting from reactive to predictive, preventive, and personalized.
Artificial intelligence and longevity science are accelerating at the same time, and together they form one of the most transformative opportunities of the decade ahead. Diamandis examines the explosive growth of AI and its implications for every industry, then connects it to the breakthroughs reshaping health and prevention, making the case for why leaders should approach this convergence with optimism rather than fear.
Exponential technologies are advancing in overlapping waves, transforming transportation, energy, healthcare, and more. Diamandis maps the metatrends set to define the coming years, from AI and humanoid robotics to abundant clean energy, hyper-connected networks, and dramatic gains in human longevity, giving audiences a clear framework for the forces reshaping global markets and how to position for non-linear growth.
Why do some organizations scale exponentially while others improve only incrementally? Drawing on the ideas behind Bold, Diamandis shows how companies can shift from linear ambition to exponential growth by harnessing a Massively Transformative Purpose, tapping crowds and emerging technologies, and building a culture that rewards experimentation, with lessons from his own ventures and the world's most disruptive founders.
Cutting against the doom that dominates the headlines, Diamandis makes a data-driven case that exponential technologies are turning once-scarce resources, from energy and food to healthcare and knowledge, into something increasingly accessible. He highlights the global progress most people overlook and offers leaders a strategic, hopeful lens on the opportunities ahead, and a reminder that the futures we envision are the ones we build.
