During lunch we had some fascinating discussion topics, including:

  • What if automation replaced 50% of jobs: how would society adapt?
  • What if workplace culture prioritized inclusion as much as innovation?
  • What if everyone had access to STEM education from childhood?
  • What if teams were required to rotate leadership roles — how would that affect collaboration?
  • And a crowd favorite: If you could have dinner with anyone living or dead, who would that be?

Curious about more in innovation, tech, entrepreneurship and women?
