ARC’s Ideas

Since its conception, ARC has set out to seek answers to the most challenging problems we face today. At our inaugural conference in October 2023, we set out four key areas of focus - our 4 streams: The Better Story, The Social Fabric, Business and Good Governance, Energy and Environment.

By the time the ARC Conference returned in February 2025, it had more than doubled in size, and the ideas driving the movement had reached millions online. The event was once again framed around our streams, but this time a fifth stream was added: Identity in The Digital Age.

The Better Story

How do we tell a better story about our civilisation and culture that will give the next generation confidence and enable them to be optimistic about their future?

The Social Fabric

How do we strengthen the social fabric and social cohesion of our nations so that the next generation grows up resilient and we are able to take on the pressing challenges we face?

Free Enterprise & Good Governance

How do we unleash the business entrepreneurial spirit and restore good governance so that the builders, innovators, and pioneers can express their creativity and bring about lasting prosperity?

Energy & The Environment

How do we remember that energy is the key to our prosperity and is the engine that makes modern life possible, powering human innovation, economic growth, and a better quality of life for all?

Identity in The Digital Age

How do we develop a pro-human approach to AI and technology so that we draw on the best of these new technologies without becoming subservient to them?

The ARC Vision Films

At each session of the conference, we premiere a short film that lays out the foundational frameworks and ideas which anchor our discussion. We invite you to watch them below.
