we wrote up a recap of the txp progress prize: - how we got support from EV / tylercowen - a review of the entries - what worked well/less well about the prize - a few parting thoughts, thank yous to Alona Ferber, Civic Future, Ben Greenstone, and our hopes for UK
great piece by Alys Key, profiling the UK progress idea factory so pumped that txp is part of this alongside friends Joe Hill greaterlondon.co Julia Garayo Willemyns UKDayOne Tony Blair Institute for Global Change + many more
You can access most of these ideas for free, from places like UKDayOne, Works in Progress, txp's Progress Prize and Tony Blair Institute for Global Change's Future of Britain project.
Naming the movement is tricky. Tech-adjacent ideologies tend to accumulate baggage quickly... But the common theme I noticed is progress. Somewhat adjacent to Patrick Collison and tylercowen's Progress Studies, I think what we are seeing here is a British idea factory for progress.
Here's my full write-up, featuring insights from Joe Hill, Julia Garayo Willemyns, Andrew Bennett, Tom Ough and Calum Drysdale digitalfrontier.com/articles/brita…
