Over the next ten years, we will see more change in the world than we have seen in the last 250 years. ​ The speed of the evolution of technology and the incredible change in humans and their values will affect our lives and the way we do business for years to come. ​ An example of a prominent development in technology that will affect the future of business lies in the applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI aims to change the way society functions, operates and interacts on every level. ​ In recent years, an increasing number of companies are using AI to slash cost, often without sacrificing effectiveness, and many are now considering making ​ AI a fundamental part of the developments of new product and service value propositions. In short, AI is now an indispensable function in any business that wants to succeed.​

Based on the research conducted on his latest book, The AI republic, co-authored with Terence Tse and Danny Goh and supported by the large corporate experience gained as co-founder of a multi-million dollar AI firm, Nexus FrontierTech, Dr. Mark Esposito will cast light on the truth beyond AI, the myths that need to be debunked and the opportunities ahead of us to reform our societies.

Dr. Mark Esposito is an Adjunct Professor of Strategy at IE Business School and one of the Faculty Leads in the Global Advanced Management Program. He is Professor of Business and Economics at Hult International Business School and Clinical Professor in the Fourth Industrial Revolution at Thunderbird Global School of Management at Arizona State University.
