Emerging/Disruptive/Exponential Technologies (EDET)

Emerging - Disruptive - Exponential Technologies (EDET)

Kriv will tackle questions such as how we define Emerging - Disruptive - Exponential Technologies (EDET)? How do they overlap, intersect? And what are their horizon impact differences? During this session, we explore these definitions and build towards how these map across Convergence Lenses, Convergence Frameworks and Convergence Impact. We’ll challenge these convergence contexts within example industry, practice and community environments and discuss views on how EDETs can be leveraged via converged, intersected, interfaced perspectives.
