With everyone becoming a brand, what is left to trade?
Some 30 years after the internet was created, a revolution is upon us. A technological counter-culture is subverting digital capitalism and powering new value frontiers for creators, consumers and brands. A next-generation internet built on decentralised technologies not only promises better user control, but also more competition.
In this presentation, we take a look at the next chapter of stakeholder capitalism. Here, we explore:
: Drivers
Rapid digital transformation is raising questions about society’s relationship with the internet and our over-reliance on centralised technology. We explore global drivers such as Accelerating Technologies, Dislocated World and Evolving Demographics.
: Insight
From direct-to-creator culture to platform cooperatives, the internet economy’s established value exchange is evolving to become more equitable and diverse. We present trends such as Post-social Creators, Cooperative Media and Direct-to-avatar.
: Foresight
In the future, technologically empowered consumers will trade new assets, currencies and collectibles as they move between virtual worlds. We delve into the future of Personal IPOs, Community Coders and Non-fungible Fabrication.
How will post-pandemic environments be reimagined?
The pandemic has sapped the energy of urban life. Revealing stark inequalities between global citizens, Covid-19 is exposing issues with urban safety, public services and access to green spaces in our cities. This demands new and urgent approaches to how our streets and spaces are used, alongside a reframing of who and what are the priorities of our future city. In the 2020s, we anticipate the rise of Equilibrium Cities.
As we move through The Transformative Twenties, data-first digital systems will enable people to shape and experience their cities remotely, possibly even in alternative realms. This presentation covers:
: Drivers
As the pandemic and sociopolitical shifts lay bare myriad inequalities in our urban environments, a call for change is emerging from hyper-local living. We explore global drivers such as Accelerating Technologies, Dislocated World and Global vs Local.
: Insight
In the decade ahead, city living will become greener, more inclusive and responsive, shaping a future of equitable and progressive urban living. We present trends such as Blended Cultural Realms, Salubrious Streets and Natural Foundations.
: Foresight
By 2030, global cities’ growth will mean urban issues are tackled through hyper-connectivity, virtual experiences and networked cooperation. We delve into the future of Civilian Safety Nets, City Super-networks and Digital Domains.
How quickly can your brand respond, recalibrate and adapt?
Forget advertising campaigns and branded content. As the power dynamic shifts between brands and consumers, all eyes are on the inner workings of your business – and how seamlessly it can respond, recalibrate and adapt. Moving beyond reactionary thinking, this is a chance for brands to pilot a truly transformative future for business.
In this presentation, we examine how as the power dynamic shifts between brands and consumers, all eyes are on the inner workings of businesses, and how seamlessly they can respond and recalibrate. This presentation unlocks:
: Drivers
Brands are caught in the middle between mounting consumer expectations and an alarmingly turbulent business climate. We explore global drivers such as Dislocated World, Global vs Local and Climate Change.
: Insight
Throwing open the doors to their internal processes, brands are abandoning knee-jerk reactions and implementing an approach of more strategic and sustained problem-solving. We present trends such as Symbiosis Strategies, Outside Insiders and Conscious Recalibration.
: Foresight
The next decade will turn the business world inside out, as revolutionary job titles disrupt the C-suite and brands contemplate their own expiry dates. We delve into the future of Chief Disaster Officers, Mortal Commerce and Dynamic Democracy.
