From AI Disruption to Strategic Advantage
AI is reshaping every industry. The question now is whether you'll build the governance and foresight to lead through it.
Nearly seven in ten organisations have AI on their agenda, yet two-thirds admit they have limited or no AI expertise (Deloitte Global Boardroom Program).
Join futurist and keynote speaker Dimitris Dimitriadis—author of 2049: A Hopeful Perspective on the Futures of Humanity and a speaker on strategic foresight and AI for the European Commission, HP, Kaspersky, and AstraZeneca—for an optimistic, down-to-earth session on leading through exponential change.
Whether you're exploring an MBA or master's at Hult, or looking to future-proof your career, you'll leave with a clear view of the skills, mindset, and leadership the AI-driven economy will reward—and a practical way to start building them today.

Session overview
A decade ago, no G20 (Group of Twenty) country had an AI law on record. Today, from Boston and London to Dubai and Singapore, regulators are writing the AI rulebook in real time (Stanford AI Index 2026). That gap between urgency and expertise is precisely where the next generation of leaders will build their careers.
After this session you’ll understand:
- How AI is rewriting business strategy, operations, and leadership—the megatrends you can plan for and the weak signals most leaders miss.
- Why AI governance has moved from the IT department to the boardroom—and how to treat it as a source of trust and competitive advantage.
- How strategic foresight works in practice: scenarios, signal-scanning, and the decision habits of future-ready organizations.
- Where the careers are heading and a preview of the opportunities waiting for professionals who combine business expertise with AI fluency and governance literacy.
