Healthcare systems around the world are facing increasing challenges. On the one hand, the innovation pipeline is stronger than ever while on the other hand financial constraints and population ageing are increasing the pressure on the systems’ sustainability. What are the major challenges that need to be overcome to make innovation compatible with a sustainable healthcare system? How can we move towards a value-based healthcare while still keeping “care” in the healthcare? How can we manage change and still keep the patient in the center?
This Meeting offers a first-class platform to top executives, healthcare providers, academics and field experts to share their experiences and provide their insight on the current state and future of the industry to continue to seek innovative ways to respond to the incredible changes affecting the healthcare sector.

In 2017 the automotive industry is heading into an age of turbulence: recent and ongoing changes in global politics add an additional layer of complexity to demographic, technological and regulatory changes already affecting the industry. New players are trying to establish a foothold and digital, asset-light business models are evolving by leveraging their ability to quickly adapt to a continuously changing environment. At the same time the reconfiguration of the European OEM landscape and the potential limitation of access for foreign-produced vehicles to the North American market generate uncertainty in the industry. Against this scenery leading companies in the industry – suppliers, OEMs and distributors – need to find ways to increase their flexibility while not putting their existing revenue streams at risk. How can the industry of industries, which generates more jobs, more innovation and more middle class households than most other industries, wether this Age of Turbulence?
At this year’s edition of our annual meeting of the automotive industry, IESE AUTO, we hope to shed some light on these questions while also addressing the “classic” questions related to the Spanish, European and global markets. In doing so, we will continue our tradition of providing a premier platform for senior executives from the automotive industry, industry experts and leading academics to exchange ideas about the future of the industry of industries.

In the food and beverage industry, all companies are under permanent positive pressure, independently of their position on the value chain, due to the industry’s responsibility to society, which is not only seen from a customer-consumer perspective, but also from the issues that affect it, such as: how to feed a growing population based on nutrition and sustainability; how to define and transform world food systems; and how to promote innovation ecosystems with the opportunities offered by technological progress, Industry 4.0, smart data and intelligent and preventive nutrition.
In this context, food and beverage companies and industry leaders need to implement the right strategy to handle these challenges throughout the industry ecosystem. This strategy must operate at the speed of the digital era and be equipped with business models that respond to the expectations and demands of consumers, who are increasingly more informed, digitized, and aware of the close relationship between Food, Health and Well-being.
In short, society and people expect answers from this industry that help them improve their quality of life and their future. This is perhaps the industry’s greatest strength and driving force, and what gives it the initiative for constant innovation and research, as well as sustainable and responsible growth.
In the upcoming edition of the Food and Beverage Industry Meeting, organized with Deloitte, we will discuss the current ”state of play”, as well as future topics and scenarios. We will be joined by entrepreneurs, directors and academics, who will speak on Economics and Geopolitics, Innovation Ecosystems, the Future of Food, Consumer Habits and Expectations, Nutrition, Strategy and Business Models.
The Industry Meeting will be held on Tuesday, May 29, 2018 and will be preceded by a forum for entrepreneurs and investors at FoodTech on Monday, May 28.

During the past 130 years, the automotive industry has gone through several significant changes. The current regulator-led initiatives towards electric mobility and new business models are an example of this: at the very beginning of the 20th century, electric cars played a major role in cities like New York, Paris or Berlin. Back then, just like now, it was difficult to predict how the world of mobility would look like in the future. Then, in a very short time between 1904 and 1914, the automotive industry changed completely. Electric cars disappeared, being replaced by cars driven by internal combustion engines, networks of gasoline stations and an expanding network of roads and highways. Companies like Ford and GM took over the reign of the industry by introducing new manufacturing methodologies like mass production and new management principles like planned obsolescence. What lessons can we learn by looking back to the early 20th century? What are the implications for the automotive value chain and its many constituents? Are we looking at “Back to the future”?
In this year’s 33rd edition of our annual meeting of the automotive industry, IESE AUTO, we hope to shed some light on these questions while also addressing the issues related to the Spanish, European and global markets. We will continue our tradition of providing a premier platform for senior executives from the automotive industry, industry experts and leading academics to exchange ideas about the future of the “industry of industries”.

Being healthy is a lot more than not being sick. Doctors, hospitals, patients, pharma companies, tech firms, medical device makers, academics, public policymakers, insurance companies and entrepreneurs are all working together to build a healthier society. With the world’s healthcare systems being transformed by resource depletion and an aging population, patients have become consumers with choices, there has been a shift from volume-based to value-based healthcare, and prevention is now on more equal footing with treatment. At the same time, digital transformation is also sweeping through the healthcare industry, where the disruptive innovations of new entrants are expected to upset the traditional marketplace. What kind of partnerships will allow for continued innovation? How do we build a new business model that drives the shift to value-based healthcare? How can we embrace strategies that keep pushing the envelope in healthcare technology? How will blockchain and artificial intelligence impact healthcare? In other words, what groundwork must be done today to continue building healthy societies?
The Industry Meeting offers top executives in healthcare firms, healthcare professionals, academics and field experts a distinguished platform to share their experience and insight on the industry’s current situation and its future, and to continue the search for innovative ways to respond to the enormous challenges faced by the healthcare industry.
