The global explosion of big data together with the ingestion and analytics of every data point imaginable will hurtle us toward a tipping point of a major disruption for businesses and society.

Whether this disruption advances the hyperconnected humankind or spells doom for society at large will depend on how all of us play our roles in putting the right thought leadership and strategy in place to exploit the deluge of information generated by the datafication of everything around us.

The utopian scenario would be the conception of a world where machines are seamlessly intertwined with humans, augmenting every façade of their being – like intelligence and productivity – and resulting in a super-smart society where economic value creation is well balanced by the resolution of social conflict.

On the dark side, these disruptive technologies can be exploited by a small subset of digital elites. They will monopolise and use these tools to control the rest of the population.

WELCOME TO BIGIT 2020, where the future of human-machine convergence will be passionately presented and hotly debated.

Listen to how big data and AI can be used to conceive a superior civilization, or how humanity can be destroyed by it. Pay attention to the importance of creating AI that is ethical and fair to all genders and race. Understand that as we race toward the dawn of an intelligent society, the emphasis must be on human skills such as creativity, leadership, communication and compassion.

Finally, BIGIT 2020 will have sessions devoted to 5G now that the country is aggressively rolling out this transformative technology. These sessions will focus on 5G business cases that will make an impact on businesses and society.
