Today, we’re sharing the Edge City Roadmap ➡️ www.edgecity.live/roadmap A vision for how we go from popup villages to a thriving Network City. At the core is a simple idea: it’s time for more experiments in how we live, connect, and build global communities. So far, we’ve had 9,000 builders, creatives, and thinkers join us across 4 villages where people live, work, and learn in environments designed for human flourishing. These popups aren’t just gatherings; they’re prototypes for a new way of life. And this is just the beginning. Our roadmap contains 6 steps to scale to a global movement, a Network City. Edge City is a bet that better ways of living are possible. If we do this right, these experiments won’t be fringe—they’ll define the next era of society. Let’s build.

Hot take: normalize having kids programming at events. ✅Parents get to participate ✅Kids learn and have fun ✅Creates a playful vibe for all attendees If you’re discussing building the future, you should have the people around who will inherit it. Blog re kids at EC Austin👇

Technology is advancing rapidly, but it isn’t guaranteed to lead to human flourishing. That’s why we’re gathering in Austin—an emerging epicenter for frontier tech—from March 2-7 to explore what’s next. No keynotes, no filler—just real conversations that spark progress. 🧵👇
