“The decisions we make in the next 5 years will shape the next 25.”
No one can predict 2050 — but we can rehearse for it. Drawing on 100+ megatrends and a century of data, this session maps the future through four scenarios:
1. AI Abundance — AI accelerates, the world aligns on rules; abundance arrives, but stability outranks liberty.
2. Battling Blocs — The world splits into rival blocs; trade shrinks, defense spending surges.
3. Climate Coalition — Extreme weather forces nations together, unlocking green innovation and investment.
4. Digital Darwinism — Governments retreat, corporations dominate; inequality widens as tech races ahead.
**Scenarios developed by BCG
Why it matters for HOW Members: Thailand sits at the crossroads of all four. For anyone placing 5–10 year bets, this is your chance to stress-test decisions across multiple futures at once.

A rare chance to hear how the world’s futures are being shaped — from someone in the room where it happens.
