Global resilience. It is the greatest challenge mankind will ever face. We face today a myriad of manmade and natural threats – from Carrington Events, Zombie Viruses, to Cyber-Kinetic Wars. We must focus on the solutions that overcome them. We believe, that in a free market environment, innovation – not government interference or special interest distortions – can effectively address many of these challenges.
We need a living laboratory, a smart village, a physical demonstration center for integrated working exhibits, a multi-dimensional resiliency zone, and an accelerator all in one physical hub. A place for corporate America, military leaders, and urban planners can visit and experience the latest technology in making our communities, infrastructure, industry, and society more resilient, affordable, and valuable!
We must spearhead private-sector solutions to converge in making our communities and industry more resilient to a myriad of natural and man-made threats. We must bolster our economic competitiveness, and be better stewards of our natural resources. Our national security and economic competitiveness demands it.
While our military is prepared for many of these challenges, our civilian sector is not. We must accelerate and showcase how we can promote and implement resilience and survivability in our societal and industrial sectors.
The EcoPlex is a World Accelerator, based on a vision of business leaders to lead our country in systematically and collaboratively tackling these challenges. These leaders share a common concern for what is happening in world affairs and our impact on both our industries and our Earth’s ecosystem. A concern about the vulnerability of our country to many threats.
We want our children to enjoy a strong, secure, vibrant, and prosperous America. To get there, we need to shift directions in our country and work together. We find too many accelerators and nonprofit organizations are operating in silos, creating tremendous inefficiencies. As well, our technological lead is being challenged by countries which do not share our values. Our political system struggles to provide consistent leadership and often distorts free markets. EcoPlex seeks to change that. Will you join us to secure the economy, national security, and future of our country and our children?
If an innovation is not good for people, profit, planet, and peace (strength), it is not sustainable. We can make products more affordable, safer, and better. And we will.
As the World Accelerator, the EcoPlex will be home to a community of leaders made up of scientists, researchers, established businesses, and entrepreneurs. Together, they will connect to the global sustainability and corporate community in a way that sets a new standard for solving challenges. Because we are committed to a culture of collaboration, the entire complex will be designed and built so that it can easily connect in real time with the global sustainable community to produce common-sense solutions.
EcoPlex will have world-class research labs, collaborative workspaces where science and industry can collaborate on solutions, and meeting spaces where global leaders can convene. The showpiece of the facility will be the national museum called the Museum of Our Future™, America’s first-ever museum in the U.S. dedicated exclusively to the adaptation and acceleration of technology – how we can innovate, live, work, and play in the future…today.
This museum, or living and permanent “World Exhibition,” will house dynamic and operating exhibits designed to help visitors learn and experience innovations to accelerate our path to societal and industrial resilience.
Industry leaders will take back with them ideas on how to adopt smart innovation and technology to improve their resilience and ROI. The museum will serve as part of clearinghouse to accelerate and showcase sustainable innovations… just as NASA did with the space race. We will make leaps in advancement!
