Owning Our Future: What’s Next in Industry 4.0
Presented at the ESSENCE Festival of Culture®
We’re entering a $500B inflection point—driven by AI, bioinnovation, and clean energy. These aren’t just technologies; they’re new systems of power, capital, and production. But without intentional design, they risk deepening the gaps they could help close.
This conversation brings together cross-sector leaders rethinking how economic growth, technological advancement, and equity can—and must—coexist. We’ll explore the blueprint for an inclusive innovation economy: one where underestimated talent becomes system architects, owners, and investors in the future.
This is a strategic dialogue for builders, funders, policymakers, and scholars committed to ensuring the Fourth Industrial Revolution isn’t just fast—it’s fair.
Featuring
Victoria Adams Phipps – VP of Global Philanthropy, JPMorgan Chase
