Technology

Technology to expand our human capabilities

We have been enhancing our capabilities through technology for some time now, but there are areas that seek to expand them by incorporating devices into the human body. In this quest, will we come to connect our nervous system with technology outside our bodies through a brain-machine interface? How will we anticipate possible ethical conflicts in the junction between humans and technology?

Artificial intelligence in our relationship with machines

Artificial intelligence in our relationship with machines

The GPT-3 artificial intelligence language model has captivated millions of users in a very short time. GPT-3 chat responds quickly to any question, but how will we recognize biased or inaccurate information? What data has it been trained on? We are approaching a much more sophisticated AI, are we ready to integrate it into our lives? What challenges do we face?  

Building the foundation for a hyperconnected world

Metadata and cloud

The volume of data around us is growing exponentially, but is regulation adapting at the same speed? While cybersecurity is no longer an exotic term, what do we know about information about the data itself? How do we ensure data governance to protect people? Will we reach a universal metadata scenario?

Mobility

From the garage to the street

Mobility

New mobility models are making us rethink cities. And, consequently, they are having an impact on our habits: are we doomed to MaaS, how will autonomous and traditional vehicles coexist, what technologies will allow us to manage a sea of data to achieve efficient mobility?

Advanced therapies that will adapt to us

Precision medicine

There is a lot of buzz around the microbiome and how deciphering it could help fight diseases in a personalized way. How is precision medicine already providing solutions tailored to an individual and their ailment? Can we use our personal information to prevent future disorders? And develop tailor-made drugs?

Talent

How to manage the talent of the future

Talent

If the paradigm for attracting and retaining talent has changed substantially in recent years, how should we prepare tomorrow’s leaders today? How do we blend the benefits of technology and people skills without losing anything along the way? Will empathy be a spearhead in organizations? The environments we create today will have a lot to do with the professions of the future.

For today and tomorrow

Educational models

The educational environment is becoming more and more hybrid, but is it flexible enough for classes to exist in the metaverse? This same premise applies to content and the need to develop liquid skills. Will learning-by-doing be the solution to reduce the gap between education and real life? Do we need a school-enterprise tandem?

Sustainability

Energy for a net zero future

Sustainability

Moving towards a net-zero world is an imperative and energy research is making progress. Green hydrogen, geothermal energy or nuclear fusion are some of the alternatives that can help meet the challenge. But along with one challenge, there are others: will clean energy production and storage be enough to contribute to sustainability? How will we achieve competitive distribution?  

Exploring space to improve life on Earth

Space

Today we can say that access to space is democratic and diversified. What are the business opportunities offered by crossing the terrestrial frontier? Will we see space factories and laboratories in the medium term? How will microgravity help us to build things that are not possible on Earth? Will traveling so far away contribute to improving our planet?

Metaverse and Web3

Are we ready for virtual worlds?

Metaverse and Web3

The expectation of the metaverse has diminished over time, but “the metaverse” is evolving into different metaverses. The metaverse-as-a-service could be one of the disruptions that will turn the business ecosystem on its head, but to achieve an experience that is not isolated we will need interoperability, will we soon be navigating between metaverses as in Web 1.0? How will immersing ourselves in this parallel world affect our real lives?
