IL26: How New Technologies Will Shape the Economy ft. Koen De Leus & Philippe Gijsels

They are co-authors of The New World Economy in 5 Trends: Investing in Times of Superinflation, Hyperinnovation and Climate Transition. We talk about how technologies like AI, 3D printing will drive economic growth and why they are likely to create more jobs than they destroy.
