Ray Kuzweil is a leading inventor, business man, investor, and futurist. He understands exponential change like few others do.

Kurzweil could help get our technology and science policy back on track. He has made his money by being able to see where tech will be and start working on the software side way before the hardware is ready. His most recent invention is a reader for the blind the size of a cell phone.

Please read a bit of his book The Singularity is Near.
