Redefining Value: Investing in the Invisible Forces of Transformation

Synopsis:

Beyond the mechanics of capital allocation, the panel explored the profound shifts in value creation and economic paradigms driven by technologies like AI, blockchain, quantum computing, and climate tech. Rather than treating these technologies as mere investment opportunities, this session challenges investors to consider their roles as architects of a sustainable digital economy, where value is increasingly tied to intangible assets, decentralised networks, and machine intelligence. 

How do we invest in technologies that not only disrupt industries but also redefine what it means to build, own, and share value in a hyperconnected, intelligent world?
