In the age of innovation, it can be challenging to keep track of one's future work-life plans. "What will the jobs of the future be like?" "Will I still be relevant?" "How can I stay ahead of machines?"  With the exponential growth of technology and jobs as we knew them changing, these are questions that have probably crossed all our minds once or twice in recent years.

In this fascinating presentation, Transition Architect, Tech Philosopher, and entrepreneur, Somi Arian, brings a fresh and relevant perspective to the future of work and what it will take to lead successful and fulfilling careers in the digital age. 

Through thoughtful analysis and philosophical and practical approaches, Arian examines the impact of technology, especially AI, on humanity and businesses alike and what uniquely human skills we need to cultivate to stay ahead of the technological curve.

During a 20 minutes keynote, she will discuss "Career Fear: how to beat it".
