Technology and the Fourth Industrial Revolution:
The theme of the 2019 Global Shaper's Technology and Leadership Summit is Humanity in Tech: The Future of Work. Join us as we dive into the impact that tech disruption will have on several key industries and the way society will value human contributions in the workforce.
As we face new challenges in an ever-changing technological environment that comes at a time of heightened geopolitical tension and unprecedented climate uncertainty, we present an evening to learn from industry experts about the far-reaching impact of automation and the Fourth Industrial Revolution, with an executive keynote from each expert, a networking session to meet the experts, and a panel discussion in the form of a tech debate on hot-button issues regarding the future of tech and humanity.
While the future is uncertain, it is imperative that we help define the unique challenges and opportunities automation will bring to our societies. There's no better time to think about the future than the present. Register now!
