The future is shaped by the ideas we dare to imagine, and the steps we take to make them real.
In 2025, [Y]our 2040 introduced a curated deck of innovative solutions and case studies called the the Pack of Possibilities produced in by [y]our2040’s team. They are designed to encourage action, spark imagination, creativity and stretch our thinking about what the future may include.
Each card highlights a project, policy, or prototype that responds to the complex challenges we face today– from climate adaptation to social cohesion, political transformation to economic resilience.
The cards are organized using the STEEP framework: Social, Technological, Economic, Environmental and Political. They are also mapped against three time horizons: Now, New and Next. Each card also includes prompting questions as provocations. This structure allows us to explore both immediate actions and long-term shifts. Where relevant for existing products and innovations, one can find a source including the location, organization and reference.
Ultimately, these are tools for exploring possibility; to inspire, to challenge and to evolve the futures we wish to create.
The full deck is coming for public use in late 2025.
GOAL
Shift how we see the world and what we believe is possible.
