The next decade will be the most transformative in human history. As artificial intelligence reshapes industries and societies navigate unprecedented change, we face a striking paradox: we're more connected than ever, yet starved for deep relationships and meaningful encounters.
In this keynote, Dex Hunter-Torricke, one of the global tech industry's leading thinkers on AI explores how the events industry is uniquely positioned to become the catalyst for navigating this great transition. The solutions to tomorrow's challenges will emerge from bringing people together in surprising ways that forge meaningful new connections needed to unlock breakthrough thinking. From immersive technologies to radical new formats, and the embrace of cutting-edge strategic thinking calibrated to a unique moment in human history, Dex reveals how events can create the conditions where collective intelligence flourishes and humanity's shared challenges finally meet their match.
