Since 2009 the Festival of Dangerous Ideas, or FODI to its fans, has curated thought-provoking topics and new approaches to wicked problems. FODI brings bold speakers, artists and experiences together in ways that are unexpected, and yes, sometimes a bit uncomfortable, but we are always unerringly authentic. Never shying away from truth, Festival of Dangerous Ideas needs funds to go ahead in 2024. This festival of international significance is expensive to deliver. In order to keeping ticket prices low so that it’s accessible, FODI's non-profit, independence is both an asset and a challenge. For the first time ever, FODI is asking its fans to help keep them in the game. Your donation will go directly to helping FODI pay deposits to lock in the best speakers and artists from around the world for 2024. FODI supporters think about the future and who want to play a role in shaping it. Is that you? Donate now at www.festivalofdangerousideas.com
