Description
OECD Deputy Director Science, Technology and Innovation Audrey Plonk will welcome participants and open the event. The plenary speakers will then offer different perspectives on how future technologies can be expected to shape human experiences. This session will consider different technological futures, their diverse impacts across different communities, and why desired futures may be less viable without addressing barriers to finance and international cooperation, among others. The session will lay the foundation for discussing values-based technological futures that achieve common goals and mitigate divides.
