World Congress 2026 Europe

Future-Proofing Human Capital for the AI Economy

July 9, 2026 13:30 – 14:00 · 30 min Tech Leaders Stage

What this session covers

Nobody knows what work, value or being “skilled” will even mean once AI reshapes the economy - yet we have to prepare for it anyway. This panel steps back from the day-to-day to ask the bigger question: how do people and societies stay relevant in a future none of us can predict? A forward-looking conversation about what endures when the rules are rewritten.
