Estoril Conferences 2024
'Time to ReThink' is the motto of the 9th Edition of the Estoril Conferences, which returns to the Nova SBE's Carcavelos Campus on October 24th and 25th, 2024, proposing dialogue towards collective action to overcome the most pressing global challenges.
Peace, Policies, Planet, Artificial Intelligence & Technology, and Longevity are the five pillars that will guide the reflection of the numerous national and international leaders invited to attend.
Organized by Nova School of Business & Economics, and NOVA Medical School, the Estoril Conferences count this year, for the first time, with the partnership of Digital Data Design Institute de Harvard (D^3), a prestigious Harvard Institute dedicated to the study of the impact of new technologies on the world, which joins the event's co-organization with the Municipality of Cascais and Turismo de Portugal.
2024 is a year of profound transformation - since World War II, there have been no such armed conflicts or devastating wars (United Nations, 2023). This year will see more elections and consequent geopolitical changes (The Economist, 2023), and the demographic transition intersects all changes and transitions because, from this year onwards, the population over 65 begins to outnumber the population under 18 (WHO, 2023).
Technology and Artificial Intelligence (AI) continue to develop exponentially, while environmental degradation reaches alarming levels, with six of the nine planetary boundaries already exceeded (Science, 2023).
In this context, the Estoril Conferences 2024 propose an incisive and comprehensive debate on the most pressing challenges with the greatest impact on the future, knowing that it is imperative to reassess our thinking and actions to drive collective progress.
