It’s time to connect!

We are undergoing a profound transformation in which the geopolitical landscape, technological innovation, sustainability imperatives, technological and economic competitiveness, and evolving industrial priorities are reshaping the future at an unprecedented pace.
INSIDE Connect 2025 is where our interdisciplinary, inclusive, and forward-thinking community comes together to anticipate what lies ahead, defining a collective vision that strengthens our impact, influence, and identity in a rapidly changing world.
This is where connections become direction. And where tomorrow begins — together.
