WHAT’S NEXT?
How Culture, Creativity, Science and Technology synergize to create an inclusive and sustainable future

Uncertainties are the only things we can be certain about in the recent times. Drastic changes have taken place, forcing us to find new ways of fulfilling even our basic needs. We no longer feel secure about how to prepare ourselves, and our younger generations, to face near future challenges. What do we know now that might still be relevant for the next new era? How do we set our priorities so our future selves may thrive? As an attempt to contribute to this endless theme, this discussion will take the perspectives of creative economy in its relation to science, technology, culture and creativity, to create an inclusive and sustainable future.
