Work Without Jobs

Satya Nadella famously said last year that we have seen a 2 year trend in digitalization get accomplished in 2 months.

This is requiring organizations to transform at unprecedented pace. But this transformation is not just about business models and technology, it is ultimately about human change. It is about ensuring we balance economics with empathy.

Critical Agenda: Migration & Talent Gap

Turkey has been experiencing the biggest brain drain in its history in recent years. In the past five years alone, tens of thousands of young people, most of whom have received higher education, have decided to settle abroad.
