Tomorrow Can Be Seen.

A couple days before this issue shut I set out to the Cleveland Clinic, in its namesake city by the lake. I'd gone there to see Toby Cosgrove, the way blasting heart specialist who moved toward becoming CEO of that doctor's facility framework in 2004 and who has guided it to striking achievement from that point forward. (That is one reason we named him one of our 2016 Businesspersons of the Year—and likely around twelve years past the point of no return at that.)


Cosgrove has a nation specialist sensibility—his way is refined and out-dated, and his articulation is so upstate New York it should be Canadian. In any case, there's nothing in reverse looking about him. Cosgrove, to be sure, is a futurist, a person who realizes that advance moves at light speed. To catch it, you simply need sufficiently sharp vision to see it—and an ability to hop after it as it's hurrying by.

Furthermore, that is the reason he was so eager to demonstrate to me the towering 3D skeleton that remained before us in a generally purge meeting room at the center. Each vein and corridor on this skinless framework—a human figure around six feet tall—could be found in its exact pathways through the body. The serpentine vessels, thusly, prompted a heart, whose extents were additionally spot-on. We could stroll around that heart, surveying the organ from any edge—and even jab our noses inside it to look at loads and valves that were likewise rendered to their right shapes and measures.

None of this really existed. The skeleton, the veins, organs, every last bit of it, were just enlarged reality pictures exuding from the Microsoft HoloLens visors we were wearing—and made by a shrewd programming model created by Dr. Stamp Griswold, a teacher of radiology at Cleveland's Case Western Reserve University, and his group. This was a superior approach to take in the turns and turns of the body than examining life structures in a reading material. It was more educational, even, than cutting up a body, said Cosgrove. "In the event that I had been able to prepare with virtual life systems in med school, I'd have been a superior specialist." Or so said the man had who spearheaded headways in mitral valve repair and different strategies.

With virtual life systems, there's nothing in the body we can't see: a heart pulsating, nerves motioning in the mind, a cell separating, a contamination seething. "In the event that we can dream it," says Griswold, "we can manufacture it."

Also, that in that spot is the subject of this striking release of Fortune: our Future Issue. We feature the visionaries and developers of tomorrow—the business people and visionaries who are not simply making the cutting edge's medicinal wonders, models, and stages, additionally reclassifying everything from TV to keeping money to security to the generation of sustenance. In addition, we highlight 41 organizations that are driving these leaps forward.
