Technology at an inflection point: Managing the potential, addressing the risks
Sam Altman, the creator of ChatGPT, is warning the US Senate about the possible risks involved in the use of some AI applications and is urging for regulations to address them. Similarly, the risks of inappropriate and/or repressive utilizations of facial recognition technologies are now widely discussed; and governments are still at pain to counter the ways blockchain technology is being utilized for money laundering and the financing of criminal activities. Regulations are sprouting out against the infringements to personal privacy as Data is the new oil of the 21st
century economy. So while the benefits of disruptive technologies innovations are well recognized, new and Increasing concerns are expressed about their possible negative societal and political implications:
- What ways to prevent that disruptive technologies developments get out of control and go wrong?
- How to address the increasing issue of trustworthiness of AI – Can we trust decision making by AI – risks of unethical behavior, lack of transparency and explainability, DeepFake and misinformation?
- What balance between the need for efficient regulations to prevent abuses and the concern for not hampering unduly technology developments?
- Beyond regulations what ethical guidelines should orient the activities of startup founders and researchers as they develop innovations with a transformative impact?

17:00 - 18:15 | Public market investors and the funding of technology innovation
As the pace of venture investment has overall declined this past year and cheap credit is drying up how can public markets take up the slack for funding technology innovation? The number of IPOs for startups have in the same way collapsed not only in India but in the US and many other countries in the world. So, many start-ups will have to tap public markets over the next few years. Before doing that they have to understand the perspective of public market investors and draw on the experience of some of the listed tech platforms. Public market investors are very different from private markets and they have slightly different expectations and investment criteria.
- What are the key differences in terms of criteria between the public market and the private investors approach to investment that start-up founders need to consider?
- What public market Investors Look For in a Startup?
- How public markets value the new age companies?
- What does it mean in terms of adjustments in the way start-up founders need to map out their development strategy?

Exponential innovation: Managing the “new normal” for business and society
May you live in exponential times. This is the 21st century version of the oft-told proverb about the blessing (and curse) of living in “interesting times”. Moore’s law is at the heart of this shift; but exponential innovation in areas from genomics to energy and climate dramatically illustrate how our time is defined by multiplying exponentials in myriad fields far beyond the digital revolution. The short term challenge is to master risk anticipation in a way allowing for effective responses to these exponential challenges. The larger opportunity lies in identifying the leading edge of large-scale changes already passing unnoticed. Overlook the change and you will be utterly unprepared for the next revolution, but understand it and you will be in a position to craft transformative strategy.

9:15 - 10:00 | India as the last frontier mega consumer market: The pivotal role of technology
In April 2023 India became the world’s most populous country. In the past decade – except for the Covid disruption – the country has registered 5 to 7.5% annual growth and its consumer class is estimated to be at around d 480 million people, increasing on average by 20-25 million people per year. One key – and very promising – feature of India’s consumer picture is the average young age – 30 to 35 – of the Indian consumer. However a huge percentage of the consuming population live in rural areas. A handicap partly compensated by the widespread reach of mobile phone and the internet and fast digitization and adoption of new technologies.
- What are India’s key Consumer Trends?
- What is the impact new consumer types – GenZ, expectations of new consumers of T2/T3 cities?
- With 700 million of internet users at this stage, are there ways to
measure the impact of internet, mobile phone and digitization on consumption growth in India? - How can startups leverage the new opportunities of this growing consumer market
- How could the Indian market be the “proving ground” for B2C products and services developed in India to be disseminated in other promising emerging market countries?

Brainstorming
While a great number of chips produced by global manufacturers are being designed in India, the country has been so far absent from the club of global players in the strategic semiconductors industry.
