Organisers describe this years theme as follows: “Fear is the oldest of human emotions; it allows us to evolve into the planet’s dominant species and survive when predators were a genuine threat.

“Now, in the modern world, is there still a place for fear? We fear failure, the unknown, the other and even ourselves. Without help, our fears spiral and overwhelm.

“Now imaging a world free from fear. What could we accomplish if we fear less?

“Let’s fail fast, dream big and make the world a better place. Now is the time to renounce fear and be unstoppable!”
