Future+ Fridays | Issue48

After spending 48 hours in Davos for the World Economic Forum (WEF) and currently writing from my birth city of Mumbai, reflecting on the insightful, disruptive discussions and forward-thinking ideas that were shared. It was a valuable opportunity to connect with leaders, visionaries and disruptors exploring the future of the industry and I am already planning a presence on the promenade for Future+ and all our members and partners next year.
