ALL IN: The innovations changing Bulgaria and the world

Next-generation technologies promise revolutionary changes and arouse both great hopes and ill-defined anxieties. Digitization, robotization, virtualization, metaverse, space factories and AI are spinning the economy into a dizzying maelstrom. Are today’s companies ready for these changes and which businesses are leading the way? How is the job market really transforming and what will be the required skills of tomorrow? What are the real dangers? And how can Bulgarian businesses recognize the opportunities, not only to avoid falling behind but so they can use them to grow?

We will seek answers to these and many more intriguing questions in the first ALL IN business forum. The event is organized by Economic.bg and will take place on September 19, 2024, at Hilton Sofia. The European Investment Bank (EIB) is a partner of the event. 

INnovation, INtegration, INvestments, INdustries, INcome, INspiration. These are some of the key components of a modern, progressive and high-tech economy. Together with the business leaders and representatives from some of the most successful companies in Bulgaria, we will seek to uncover what is behind the glow of these nice-sounding concepts and how we can make these ideas shine more brightly in the Bulgarian business ecosystem.

The focus of the first edition of the forum will be INVESTMENTS in INNOVATIONS - the main engine for the development of economies. We will present various examples of rapid adaptation to the ever-changing world.

Meet the INsiders

The event will take place in three panels:  

• PANEL 1| INnovations for INdustry: TRANSFORMERS
• PANEL 2| INvestments in INnovations: The New Wave
• PANEL 3| Meet the INsiders: & INspiration for ALL

We will hear from the companies what the big challenges are today and for the future, what goals they set for themselves, and what practical and financial possibilities there are for their realization. We will find out how businesses and institutions are becoming more competitive on their path of sustainable development and what innovations will make the Earth a better place to live.

Our guest INspirers will expand the horizon of familiar business realities to show us how innovative ideas take root in Bulgaria through inspiration, boldness and open-mindedness. Or how they originated here before spreading globally and even beyond into space.

The purpose of the forum is to present to local businesses innovative solutions that can address some of the biggest challenges of our age, such as digitization and the future of the labor market in the context of the rapid entry of AI, plus the role of education as a basis for creating highly qualified staff and a high added value economy. 

Education is sometimes free. Knowledge is always priceless. Get inspired by the most successful leaders - MEET THE INSIDERS! 

Registration is free, but places are limited.
