Deloitte on the Davos agenda

At the upcoming WEF Annual Meeting in Davos, Deloitte is set to showcase its leadership and insights with a diverse range of activities detailed below.

Affiliate session—Amplifying the global value of Earth data 

Friday, 19 2024 January |17.00 (CET)

Our world is experiencing ecological and climate challenges of unprecedented scale. With an imperative for green transformation, Earth observation (EO) data is an effective tool to inform decisive action. EO and supporting technologies are used to measure and monitor both natural and manmade environments. And with use cases ranging from reforestation to shaping actuarial analyses and optimising supply chains, EO data' value proposition is compelling from both climate and business perspectives.

The scale and quality of commercially available EO data has risen exponentially in the past decade, driven largely by new EO satellites with advanced sensors. At the same time, artificial intelligence and high-performance computing are accelerating our ability to derive value-added insights from immense volumes of EO data. But, while technology gaps are closing, collective action and greater investment are still needed to increase global access and equity in the use of EO. This panel will explore high-impact uses for EO and key strategies that organisations can take to not only multiply the value derived from EO data, but to also provide additional trust and transparency in the actions being taken to transition to a net-zero economy.

WEF programme—Thinking through augmentation

Wednesday, 17 2024 January | 09.00 - 09.45 (CET)

As AI propels us towards a new economic era, its potential for generating trillions in value hinges on how it is deployed in the workforce, with several scenarios possible of high to low employment and high to low productivity outcomes.

This session will explore potential job and productivity scenarios and how leaders should shape the most desirable outcomes for economies and societies.
