The theme of 2026 year’s Digital Hub, "How to Lead Autonomous Systems?", is becoming more and more a part of our everyday lives – from production and supply chains to office work and data economy. Technological tools are taking on more and more everyday decisions and activities.
It’s about much more than just automation:
Are we ready for an environment where autonomous everything is the new normal?
How will our work, management, and business and service models adapt to change?
What role will humans play – what skills do we need and how do we prepare?
How to design an organization that functions efficiently in the era of self-managing systems?
The focus is on self-managing systems, their impact and adaptation:
OPERATING MODELS: How will the management and business models of companies change if the systems are able to make their own decisions and manage processes?
WORK (ORGANISATION): What skills and roles will people have to shoulder and how to prepare for substantive changes in the workplace?
TECHNOLOGIES: What solutions are already in use and what developments can be expected in the coming years for autonomous systems to create real value.
