Our civilization has made tremendous progress over the last few decades.

But progress is not a sprint. It is a marathon. Our progress has now led us to question some of the fundamentals of how the world works, how tech works, and how our relationships work. This is a Paradigm Shift in the making.

Welcome to a fireside chat with Hélène Barnekow, CEO of Microsoft Sweden to understand the dynamics of this Paradigm Shift.

5- What is responsible tech and how to enable it across the globe?

6- Are entrepreneurs the enablers of the Paradigm Shift? How?

7- How to make entrepreneurship a level playing field for everyone?
