Welcome to join us on Tuesday, 2 September at 8:30 a.m. for a discussion on changes in the business operating environment, including skills and competencies, future opportunities, and how foresight can be used to support business development and strengthen business capabilities.
During the morning, we will hear an overview of future trends and emerging phenomena relevant to businesses and engage in a collaborative discussion on the changes shaping the business environment and how organisations can prepare for them through foresight.

The discussion will be guided by questions such as:
- What are the practical benefits of foresight for businesses?
- Where will future business opportunities emerge?
- What developments should companies start preparing for today?
- Which trends and phenomena may reshape industries in the coming years?
