It is also a forum to learn and connect, including a program with many sessions and formats designed to facilitate meaningful dialogue and stimulate new thinking. The Agora covers a wide array of transformational technology platforms―from digitalization, AI, analytics and connectivity to robotics, blockchain, additive manufacturing, mobility and new technologies for decarbonization.
