9:15 AM - 10:15 AM | Keynote Speaker: Erica Orange, Executive Vice President/ Chief Operating Officer, The Future Hunters Reimagination in a Time of Change: Talk of an eventual "return" to the way things were is unrealistic. lnstead of preserving our tried-and-true ways of doing things, we must adapt and innovate quickly, to an ever-changing world. Change is happening faster than ever before and is catapulting us into a world of "templosion" - a term to describe the rapid acceleration of time. Using macro sociocultural, economic, demographic and technological trends as a catalyst, Erica will put these changes within a broader context and discuss how they will transform the landscape now and in the years to come. |
