About us
Future meets YOU! is a global initiative with the mission to empower the next generation with the skills they need to thrive in an increasingly digital world.
We humans have a unique capability: We can imagine things that weren’t previously there and take the steps to turn this into reality. The world we live in today is the result of many creative moments in the past, and those moments didn’t just happen in fine art, poetry or music. Whether it is great inventions like the wheel, the printing press or the internet or daily moments like solving maths challenges, creating a business strategy or developing a new product: creativity is part of everything we do.
As emerging technologies like AI increasingly permeate our daily lives, we will need new skills to live our full potential. Our mission is to equip the next generations with the tools and the mindset to thrive as digital citizens.
Welcome
Future meets YOU! Founders
Iliana Grosse-Buening & Ellina Perlin
Welcome to "Future meets YOU!" – a journey that started more than 25 years ago in the class of Marina Kheifets and Anna Yarovaya at the Subito Music School in Düsseldorf, Germany. It was there that we met and started our journey of making music together. The piano didn’t just shape the greater part of our childhoods - playing competitions and concerts all across the world - but also the women we became, the way we navigated our careers and subsequently founded our businesses and charities.
To us, it was always clear that our musical training was more than learning notes and playing concerts; it helped us cultivate skills that transcended the realm of music.
We live in a complex world that is rapidly changing and so are the skills that we will need to thrive in it, as individuals and communities. Our mission with Future meets YOU! is to pass on the gift we received and to enable the next generation to leverage the power of creativity to foster those very skills. We hope you join us on this mission so that together we can co-create a future where every human can live their full potential and thrive.
