World Future Organization Launches the 2025 Global Future Readiness Index for Countries under the Futurebility Program
Comprehensive research and evaluation prepared by World Future Awards
The World Future Organization (WFO), in partnership with World Future Awards (WFA), proudly announces the official release of the Global Future Readiness Index 2025, an international assessment that measures how effectively countries are preparing for the profound transformations of the coming decades.
This index is part of Futurebility, a pioneering initiative developed by WFA to evaluate the capacity of nations to anticipate change, adapt to emerging technologies, and ensure sustainable growth in an era defined by innovation and uncertainty.
🔹 What Is Futurebility?
At its core, Futurebility represents a forward-looking framework designed to understand what makes a country resilient, competitive, and visionary.
It analyzes national strengths and weaknesses across six essential pillars — innovation and technology, governance, digital infrastructure, environmental resilience, economic agility, and social inclusion.
The methodology combines data-driven indicators, expert analysis, and comparative global benchmarks to produce an insightful portrait of how ready the world’s nations are for tomorrow’s challenges.
🔹 Key Findings: The 2025 Global Leaders in Future Readiness
The 2025 Futurebility rankings reveal a clear pattern: countries that combine technological innovation with social trust, sustainable policy, and strategic investment lead the way in shaping a balanced, future-oriented world.
Singapore — The Global Standard for Strategic Readiness
Singapore tops the index as a model of forward-thinking governance and technological leadership. Its success lies in combining world-class digital infrastructure with adaptive economic policy and a culture of innovation that permeates public and private sectors alike. From AI-driven public services to climate-resilient urban planning, Singapore demonstrates how national vision can translate into measurable future readiness.
