Today’s adult millennials live in an interdependent and interconnected era. These future leaders are shaping how society will evolve and will be the drivers of meaningful change. But what are the influencers and motivators of this interactive generation? What is driving this change, and are millennials connected to each other globally? Is change a global millennial movement, or is it an individual choice?
FT-Telefónica
Millennials Summit: The Interactive
Generation, is
the second part of a high-profile global series of events organised by the
Financial Times and Telefónica that continues the global conversation on the
impact of the millennial generation on society. Sharing further new findings
from the largest-ever global survey of more than 12,000 adult millennials, this
summit will provide thought-provoking insights into the next generation of innovators
and will explore their views on current society, the changes they envision in
the future, and how they will drive that change. This global conversation,
following the successful launch in London,
will focus on the influence of the millennial generation in effecting lasting
societal and economic change. What are
their perspectives on social issues and equality? Will an uncertain global
economy encourage adult millennials to become entrepreneurs and find new paths?
Is technology a driver or a hindrance to millennial aspirations and day-to-day
lives?
This series of summits will conclude with a call-to-action
by policy makers in Brussels
later this year.
