Digital Generations: leading change in the innovation era

How can we engage young people and make them feel an integral part of collective decisions?

In an era where digital transformation is a driving force of change in each business, it is essential not only to keep pace with progress, but also to anticipate challenges and seize the opportunities it offers.

Technology not only radically alters the way we interact with the world, but it is capable of profoundly shaping the future of society, economy, and health. Therefore, it is essential to fully understand its impacts and implications.

In this context, the importance of actively involving new generations in the collective dialogue on the subject becomes evident, thus ensuring a diversified and inclusive representation of perspectives. Young people have grown up in a digitized era and own a natural knowledge of emerging technologies and their potential.

On May 14th, at the second appointment of The WaveProgram, with lleana Pirozzi, Head of Healthcare Investments in Exor Ventures, and Fabio Boniolo, researcher at prestigious institutions such as the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, and the Harvard Medical School in Boston, we will talk about youth, innovation, and Artificial Intelligence.

An open dialogue to explore how technology is influencing key sectors such as medicine. It will be an opportunity to discuss the challenges and prospects that this transformation brings with it, and how we can collaborate with other countries to maximize its benefits and mitigate its risks.
