In September, the third edition of the Future Shapers – the AIPC talent programme – was kicked-off. This year, 9 talents from 8 different countries have been selected to participate.
The programme has three components:
- Masterclasses: a series of 7 expert led masterclasses
- Industry challenge: working with their group, the Future Shapers will collectively identify an industry challenge, create a proposed solution, and develop a business case for investment which will be detailed in a white paper, written by the group, which will be published to the AIPC community
- Challenge presentation: working with their group, the Future Shapers will prepare a 20-minute presentation to be presented at the AIPC Annual Conference in San José, Costa Rica which will take place on 1st and 2nd July 2024.
The first 3 masterclasses have taken place and the industry challenges identified. The key next step is to crystallize the ideas, prepare the cases and the presentation (in addition to the remaining lectures).
