About the Association of Professional Futurists


Who We Are

The Association of Professional Futurists is a growing community of professional futurists dedicated to promoting professional excellence and demonstrating the value of futures thinking.

Futurists work in global corporations, small businesses, consultancies, education, non-profits and governments. The APF was founded in 2002 and now includes 260 members from twenty-five countries.

Here's a brief brochure about joining the APF, and one that addresses student members
