No, that isn&#8217;t true. But it is true that they are a non-profit research group that helps identify trends and provides insight for how society and the marketplace will be transformed. business strategy, design process, innovation, and social dilemmas&#8230; You name it, their able brains are on it. Plus, they&#8217;ve been doing it for 40 years, so you can be sure they&#8217;re pretty good at it.</p>
<p>Their office in Palo Alto, California doesn&#8217;t seem all that futuristic, but it does seem conducive to thinking about the future. Fake palm trees, good lighting, and lava lamps: how could you not put your thinking cap on? I&#8217;ve had several epiphanies just looking at the pictures.</p>
