Life in 2030: Discuss the future with those who are creating it

A look into the research crystal ball...

In the Ontario vineyard of 2030, we’ll sip wines that were once the domain of far-away, exotic locations. Big business will set environmental and social policies. And consumers will choose how their energy is generated.

Brock University - in collaboration with Western University and the University of Windsor - is hosting a panel of researchers from across Ontario who will be discussing future trends in their research areas. Speakers include:

• Debbie Inglis, Brock University, "Climate change will move Ontario wineries toward great new styles and flavours of wine”
• Tima Bansal, Western University, “The lines between business, society, and government will blur”
• Rupp Carriveau, University of Windsor, “Consumers will choose how their energy is generated”

John Storm, host of Cogeco’s Taking Niagara by Storm, will moderate the discussion.

This event is part of a wider campaign – called “Research Matters” – to raise the profile of research in society. Brock University is one of five universities across Ontario selected to host this public series.
