[Festival of Ideas 2019] How to Thrive in the Age of Acceleration

The world is being reshaped today by three simultaneous accelerations – in technology, globalisation and climate change. To thrive in today’s world – as a worker, a company, a community or a nation state – requires learning how to adapt to all three at once. Thomas Friedman’s lecture will explore how we undertake those adaptations, who is doing it well and what it means for education, politics, business and geopolitics. It’s a talk the author describes as ‘a brief theory of everything!’.

This public lecture is part of the Festival of Ideas (FOI) 2019, the inaugural flagship event of the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy. The theme for FOI 2019 is Governance for the Future: Asia's Perspective.
