DIVERSE PROGRAM TRACKS
Inventures 2023 kicks innovation into overdrive with a range of curated program tracks leading to new insights, new perspectives and new challenges that only innovation can solve.
The Metaverse: Living virtually could generate up to $5T in value by 2030. What’s involved? Who’s setting the pace? Where’s investment flowing?
Future of Work: Work and life are blending into empowering experiences that put social entrepreneurship and conscious consumerism at the heart of sustainable local and global ventures.
Ag/Food Tech: Grow local, feed global is the new refrain as climate and geopolitics impact food security worldwide. Enter an arsenal of technologies to reshape community needs and nutritional norms.
Health Innovation: Life expectancy is increasing steadily due in part to leaps in medical science. Putting ‘healthy’ at the heart of a longer life is spurring collaboration to transform lifelong care networks.
Clean Tech: Pathways to net zero are being paved globally with a range of renewables, carbon-based and clean energy solutions.
Accelerating Growth: Going from startup to unicorn is a story best told by those in the trenches. Learning how to grasp knowledge fast is the essence of entrepreneurs and those who invest in their journey.
Computing Infinity: Fueled by artificial intelligence, machine learning and big data, quantum computing has the potential to revolutionize industries.
Building Better: 3D construction, digital twinning, advanced materials and design are combining to innovate everything physical, creating cleaner, greener, more affordable zero waste cities.
