How AI is Transforming Content Consumption Behavior
A new generation is growing up with AI as their primary interface to the world. From personalized feeds to multimodal searches and generative storytelling, algorithms are no longer curators, they’re shaping what we watch, read, and believe as co-creators. This session explores how AI-native behaviours are redefining attention, creativity, and trust, and what media must do to evolve their formats, distribution, and ethics for an audience that expects intelligence to be built in.

How Stories are a Force of Change
This session bridges economics, geopolitics, and the mechanics of narrative in examining how storytelling shapes markets, public trust, and social behavior. Drawing on George Soros’s reflexivity and Robert Shiller’s narrative economics, we explore how viral beliefs influence everything from capital flows to voting patterns. In a world shaped more by tropes and emotions, not just data, how can a full-spectrum of leaders, from those in government to entrepreneurs, recognize, harness, and respond to stories that fuel action?

Blueprints for Belonging and Resonance
Stories live beyond the screen, they take shape in the environments where they are made, encountered, and felt. From intimate, character-driven sketches to raw, on-the-ground journeys and cross-regional media, the spaces around storytelling influence how people find meaning and belonging. This conversation explores how creative contexts, from digital platforms to real-world settings, create resonance, and how craft and distribution can turn storytelling into a shared space where people feel seen and connected across cultures.
