The Globotics Upheaval: Globalization, Robotics, and the Future of Work
Automation, AI and robotics are changing our lives quickly – but digital disruption goes much further than we realise.
In this talk, Richard Baldwin, one of the world’s leading globalisation experts, will explain that exponential growth in computing, transmission and storage capacities is also creating a new form of ‘virtual’ globalisation that could undermine the foundations of middle-class prosperity in the West.
This book talk will be followed by a drinks reception and book signing, all welcome.
