Financial Centre Futures
The Financial Centre Futures program seeks to initiate discussion on the changing landscape of global finance and explore how it might work in the future. The flagship project of the program is the Global Financial Centres Index (GFCI). This is a bi-annual publication, first produced by the Z/Yen Group in March 2007, which examines the 75 major financial centres across the world – in terms of competitiveness.

Meta-Commerce
Meta-Commerce maps the road to Long Finance, by helping to identify a set of core questions that need solving in order to have a working financial system - linking economics, finance and society. Inspired by David Hilbert's 23 questions project of 1900, the Meta-Commerce programme aims to use this framework of questions to help prioritise future research and direct action.
Eternal Coin
The Eternal Coin programme aims to initiate a global discussion on the nature of money and the concept of value. It takes a long-term and inter-generational approach and is an educative programme teaching the theory and mechanics of currencies.
Real Time Club
Founded in 1967, the Real Time Club is believed to be the world’s oldest IT dining Club. The Club is dedicated to participative events that provide “rapid responses to the challenges of the information society”.
