About the GIS 2019
We are living in an era of accelerated change, in which the economic landscape and society as we know them are being challenged. Exponentially growing technologies are re-shaping the way we work, businesses operate and compete, nations are governed and societies function.
​
Professionals, businesses, cities and nations are increasingly being called to navigate this changing reality and take action. They will either transform themselves or face disruption. The leveraging of technologies to modernize cities, advance infrastructure, restructure energy supply chains and promote industry growth is matched by a need to innovate in finance, implement quickly-adapting institutions and acquire the talent needed to keep pace with an increasingly volatile global landscape.
​
Nations and cities around the globe are confronting this reality, experimenting with policies and strategies that fit their own contexts and launching transformation initiatives. In pursuing this path, they create opportunities for research, innovation, investment, business partnerships and economic growth.
​
The 2019 Global Innovation Summit (GIS 2019) will bring together leaders and thinkers representing businesses, academia and governments from across the globe to analyze the opportunities and challenges presented by this era of transformation.
