INDUSTRY
Media & Entertainment
Digital Theme parks is the mental model we like to look through to see the future of what today is called “media and entertainment”. Technologies of extended realities, including haptics, interconnectivity, and the Generative AI like deep-fakes and new world generation, will enable a level of immersion into alternate worlds that we are just seeing the beginnings of.
But, it will still be a spectrum of choices that meet the consumer where they are at any given time – the need to relax, the need to explore, the need to interact, the need to create, the need to connect. Here are some of the questions we are asking about media, entertainment, the capture of eyeballs, ears, haptics, and stepping into the Metaverse.
We ask these 3 key questions when looking at the future of all industries.
- How will you intertwine the Triple Bottom Line of Planet, People, and Prosperity?
- Where are the Moments of Courage you need?
- What Key Questions will unlock new mental models?
We encourage you to push beyond ESG reporting, to harness exponential technologies and take Courageous Actions to Build Forward.
The Triple Bottom Line

- How to build digital worlds without destroying this world?
- How to become a zero footprint, in the energy hungry digital sector?
- How to make analogue production less wasteful?

- How to use entertainment as a deep connection to the real world?
- People

- How to avoid the temptation to design for bingeing and addictive behaviors? Life is more than media.
- How to truly break the barriers, to connect all people?
- Prosperity
- What area of the emerging Metaverse do you want to expand and orchestrate?
