Future State is a series of high-impact business briefings led by innovators at world-changing companies.

As technology continues to reshape our world at an accelerated pace, traditional paradigms are rapidly evolving, giving way to new ways of living and working. Businesses in Aotearoa New Zealand now have the opportunity to embrace digital transformation and unlock their potential for productivity and sustainability. Future State 03: Ahead Of The Curve will explore the impacts of these bold new systems, tools and methodologies on businesses. It will also delve into how organisations can not only adapt to seize new opportunities, but also ensure their continual success and resilience at a time where environmental impact is as much an imperative as growth. Join us on May 2 at Spark Arena in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland where speakers from Accenture, Slack, IKEA and New York University will share their insights. Future State is a powerful reminder to embrace the digital transformation of business, technology and creativity as a means of propelling us towards a more sustainable future for our planet.
