Some of you may have heard that China is going through a very, very cold spell right now and that the army has been mobilized to help out the citizens.

About Asia Focus
- In response to the great need for foresight about Asia, IFTF has launched the Asia Focus Program. Asia Focus research topics are large-scale, under-explored areas from which unexpected futures will emerge. It is part of IFTF's flagship program, the Ten-Year Forecast Program, which provides a broad scan of the environment and is a leading source of foresight for a vangard of business, government, and nonprofit organizations.

We provide the foresight to create insights that lead to action.
