CYBERSPACE: ALL YEAR

This year, a part of Vision Weekend is also moving to cyberspace. 

As an Associate, you can watch our US and France talks from cyberspace, and meet minds like yours from around the globe. Launching at Vision Weekend, and continuing throughout 2022, we invite you to join our cyberspace layer for virtual seminars, collaborations and community.

 

 

SAN FRANCISCO: DEC 4 & 5

As Associate, you can choose the daytime option to join us for Saturday’s program at the Internet Archive in San Francisco and Sunday’s afternoon sessions at the Bird’s Nest Villa in the Berkeley Hills.

As Ally, you are additionally invited to join Saturday’s VIP dinner at a private home in SF, and Sunday’s small morning sessions on a ship, and rocket company around SF. 

We recommend booking your stay at The Riu Plaza At Fisherman’s Wharf to be in the same place as other participants.

FRANCE: DEC 11 & 12

As Associate, you can choose to join our Saturday and Sunday daytime program at Chateau du Feÿ, Villecien, a laboratory for the future disguised as a stunning 17th century castle, 90 minutes outside of Paris.
 

As Ally, you are invited to stay two nights at the Chateau, from Friday to Sunday, to enjoy the evening celebrations and curated experiences.

 

If you are not staying at the castle, we recommend staying in Joigny, 10 minutes from the chateau. For instance at the Hotel Restaurant Le Rive Gauche
