Now On Demand.
The convergence of several disruptive technologies – such as robotics and AI, electric mobility, as well as the blockchain – is creating unprecedented opportunity, while also upending many long-standing industries. At the same time, new generations of consumers with distinct preferences are rapidly changing demand for key staples, such as food, water and health care, as well as immersive experiences via the digital economy. Meanwhile, an evolving relationship with the physical environment is heralding an era of unique challenges as we grapple with climate change and modernizing our infrastructure. In this webinar, the Global X research team explores these changes and identifies what they believe will be among the most critical developments for 2022 and beyond.
