Jessica Groopman has spent her career researching how emerging technologies impact humans, business, and broader ecosystems. For more than 15 years, she has advised innovation leaders around the world on digital transformation, market trends, and how to unlock new value through innovation.

2020 marked an inflection point for business: no longer can environmental and social crises be ignored. Yet the surge in ESG and sustainability investments focus more on problems than opportunities. Leading organizations realize it’s not about doing less harm, but doing more good. The next generation of organizations and technologies are regenerative, designed to wield the power and scale of business technologies in service to people and planet, aligning profit models that give back and contribute value to their ecosystems rather than constantly extracting from it. Emerging technologies are the catalyst to accelerate and scale these models, far beyond "net zero".
Based on original research, this speech offers the “net positive” framework for digital transformation and is sure to inspire new ways of thinking:
Nature’s approach to innovation: regeneration
Why now? Why not “sustainability?” Top forces driving regenerative business
What does regenerative business look like? Real-world case examples, impacts across stakeholders
How are big companies becoming regenerative? A framework for regenerative value creation
Compounding technological, societal, and economic forces are colliding, but what do they mean for your customers, business, and ecosystem? –Much more than meets the eye! Companies cannot afford to remain reactive, but must proactively examine how they must shift to survive. Join anthropology-trained technology expert Jessica Groopman from Kaleido Insights as she guides audiences to see beyond the tech, for the silent but radical disruptions impacting people, culture, and business models.
This speech has helped executives and teams around the world navigate the noise, supercharge ideation, and identify the real opportunities for innovation. Areas of exploration may include:
Web3, blockchain and the future of trust, a new business currency
AI and the future of human augmentation
Ambient IoT sensing, metaverse, and the future of interface
Biotech, genomics, and the future of design
Distributed energy, renewables, and the future of power
Much ado about artificial intelligence and its commercial adoption. But amidst all the hype lie several unsung truths overlooked in most discussions of AI. Upon researching over 400 AI applications across 20+ industries, industry analyst Jessica Groopman has distilled these key findings into five easily digestible considerations for business strategists and innovation leaders.
This talk promises to inspire teams with five new ways of understanding and applying AI.
AI demystified: 5 shockingly overlooked AI realities
AI & people: trust, ethics, governance, intelligence, inclusion
AI readiness: research-backed recommendations for responsible use and business success
