Industries in Transition

15 events46 speakers

Industries are changing faster than incumbents can adapt. This program examines four sectors in transition—education and work, media and news, boards and leadership, entertainment and gaming—looking one year out and three years out.

The audience is deliberately mixed: investors looking for opportunities, startups building new models, scaleups proving what works, service providers enabling change, think tanks researching what comes next, and policymakers trying to keep pace.

The goal isn't just understanding what's changing. It's finding solutions that fit, identifying investable opportunities, and connecting people who can actually move things forward. Each session covers what's deployable now, what's emerging, and where the gaps are between what exists and what's needed.

Come to learn. Come to explore. Come to connect with people building what's next.
