RADAR is a DAO that is focused on trend foresight and the future of futures. We are the first community owned and powered futures engine.

We are a media platform + research community + trend accelerator and incubator focused on discovering and delivering better futures.

We are proud and thrilled to have recently launched our first RADAR Futures report: A Future In Sync. This was a labor of love for so many in our community, and we can't wait for you to read it! If we’re being honest, we weren’t sure how this report would play out. In true web3 fashion, we’re building the plane as we fly it. but we immediately started to see the magic unfold in real time.

RADAR is a global community of once-strangers; a mix of researchers new to web3; web3 natives hearing 'futures industry' for the first time; and curious humans seeking those who would stoke their interests and passions, and maybe teach them something interesting along the way.

This group:
> Curated hundreds of Signals over the course of months
> Collectively decided upon a single topic to investigate, in line with RADAR’s values and vision
> Came together in Caves and Campfires, learning and leveraging new tools for collaboration
> Collected and connected dots across space and time, bringing their own unique backgrounds and perspectives to the table
> Converged on a narrative of the present, and map of the future as a community, rallying behind a center of gravity that would propel us into what’s next (you’ll see ✨)

Together we set out to explore an expansive brief, charting a path toward A Future In Sync. how could we overcome this liminal struggle and build a world where we were more in sync with ourselves, each other, and the world around us?

A project team of brilliant researchers and strategists, spread out across the globe. a supporting squad of 20+ bringing color and texture at every turn. experts and friends contributing their wise words. from research through to future mapping, it was a true community effort.

As Paul Ford wrote for WIRED, "People tend to make predictions while looking through their own narrow lens. The real vision lies in seeing connections.” what he didn’t count on was what could happen when you brought together dozens of perspectives from around the world, threw them into the chaos of Discord, and let them work it out bit by bit so that a team of thinkers, makers, and creators could take the baton from there.

But in the meantime we hope you enjoy the fruits of our collective labor. And maybe soak in some lived lessons on the ✨future✨ of labor while you’re at it. Because we think we’re onto something special. You’ll want to keep us on your radar. 😏 Without further ado, link to the report below.
