About the event
Dear colleagues,
Sustainable Innovation and Technology Foundation is pleased to invite you to explore The Great Remobilization: Toward Globalization 2.0, a compelling framework by Professor Olaf Groth that redefines the future of global economic and technological landscapes.
In this thought-provoking session, Prof. Groth argues that the era of Globalization 1.0—rooted in the Bretton Woods institutions and continuous liberalization—is over. In its place, we are witnessing the rise of a new global architecture, shaped by six tectonic shifts:
COVID-like pandemics & CRISPR
Cognitive Technologies & AI
Crypto, Web 3 & Digital Economies
Cybersecurity
Climate Change & Carbon Transition
China-US Relations & Geopolitical Tensions
These forces converge to create what Prof. Groth defines as the GeoTech G2+X world—a landscape where geopolitics and exponential technologies collide.
Through the FLP-IT framework—which combines scenario planning, zeroth principles thinking, and portfolio theory—he offers strategic tools to chart a resilient and growth-oriented path forward.
