To thrive in today’s fast-moving and confusing world, leaders need to be
able to connect the dots between seemingly unrelated events, technological
advancements, and policy changes coming from all over the world. In many
ways tech is altering how systems work, how industries compete, and how we
ourselves think and act.

At TechonomyNYC, May 8-9, we bring the pieces together by convening a
diverse group of experts-practitioners of innovation, business leaders who
are open about their challenges, policy experts who go out on a limb, and
plenty of young entrepreneurs.

Our aim is to facilitate a cross-fertilization of ideas that produce ‘A-ha
moments.’ There is no other conference quite like this one. It’s a two-day
collective conversation. You should be part of it.

Join us to hear from:

Erik Ekudden, chief technology officer, Ericsson, on how 5G is poised to
change everything;
Alice Lin Fabiano, global director, social innovation, J&J, and Brian Deese,
global head of sustainable investing, BlackRock, on why companies and
investors are focusing on the good they can do;
Chris Hughes on inequality, Facebook, and what government should do now;
Maggie Chan Jones, CEO, Tenshey, Sarah Gerber, co-founder, Zero Gap NGO, and
Gina Hadley, co-founder, The Second Shift, on how women are creating a more
equitable workplace;
Austin McChord, CEO, Datto, and Amy Nelson, CEO, Venture for America, on how
tech can revive American cities;
Heidi Messer, chairperson, Collective[i], and Rudina Seseri, founder,
Glasswing Ventures, on how AI is changing marketing and business;
Doug Peterson, CEO of S&P Global, on deploying data for society and for
business
Eric Ripert, chef and co-owner, Le Bernardin, on the future of food;
