What do fast-growing startups with spot-on products and mission-driven talent have in common? They build their company based on emerging trends and then turn them into strategy. In this event, we’ll explore how following these trends can power winning strategies for products, marketing, talent, and lasting impact.

What separates startups that grow fast, launch the right products, and attract mission-driven talent?
It’s not luck. It’s their ability to recognize the underlying shifts—market, cultural, and technological—that shape what people want next.
Trends are like tectonic plates: invisible at first, but they move everything above them. From product development to marketing to company culture, startups that catch these shifts early get a decisive edge. Those who miss them risk betting on the wrong horse.
In this session, we’ll uncover why interpreting trends correctly matters, and walk through real-world cases of ventures that read the signals well—and others that missed the mark. Each story shows how reading the signals right (or wrong) can define a venture’s trajectory.
Whether you’re a founder, investor, or innovator, this talk will sharpen your lens on the forces already shaping tomorrow—and help you see why some startups succeed while others stumble.
