Towards 2050: Megatrends In Industry, Politics And The Global Economy

To celebrate the launch of the 4th edition of BMI’s Megatrends report, you’re invited to join us at the Fitch Auditorium for our in person event Towards 2050: Megatrends In Industry, Politics And The Global Economy on Wednesday, 21st June.

Date: Wednesday 21 June

Time: 08:30 - 12:00 BST

Location: Fitch Auditorium, 30 North Colonnade, E14 5GN

Using our analyst expertise and supported by an industry wide survey, we will look at the disruption risk and opportunities across industries, as well as seeking to understand how key global themes will impact economies and geopolitics through to 2050.

Presentations during the event will provide a deep dive view on the future of the energy landscape, focusing on energy transition including green technologies and the future energy mix. We will also take a look at political risk through the lens of climate change, looking at how both mitigation and adaption will feed through to political risk over the coming decades.

Taking stock of these trends we will look at how they are set to affect key sectors such as Autos, Technology and Consumer.

Discussion topics will include the impact of:

  • Digital transformation and disruptive technologies

  • Climate change mitigation and adaptation including the low carbon energy transition

  • Sustainability and ESG

  • Labour, skills shortages and demographic shifts

  • Trade and globalisation trends

  • Political and economic volatility
