Future Festival World Summit Panel Speakers

Kara Cunzeman Joins Future Festival World Summit

We’re honored to welcome Kara Cunzeman, Director of Strategic Foresight at The Aerospace Corporation, to the Future Festival World Summit 2025 in Toronto for an exclusive Q&A session presented in partnership with ITONICS.

A rocket scientist turned futurist, activist, and systems thinker, Kara is redefining what it means to lead in the future space. As the founder of Aerospace’s first foresight office, she heads a high-impact team tackling some of the U.S. government’s most complex national security and innovation challenges in space. She also leads the Federal Foresight Advocacy Alliance, an initiative focused on scaling futures thinking across American institutions.

Kara has been named a 'mad scientist' by U.S. Army TRADOC, sits on multiple advisory boards, and is known for bridging hard science with deeply human vision. Her upcoming book, 'Unconstrained Futures,' promises to challenge traditional paradigms and unlock new approaches to long-range strategy and leadership.

Join us at Future Festival World Summit, September 23 - 25, to hear Kara’s perspective on the evolving role of foresight, leadership, and systems transformation -- in a conversation that will leave you thinking bigger and braver about what’s next.
