A dark-themed banner with bold white text reading "Future of Work" above a red line, under which the word "Symposium" appears in smaller white letters. To the right of the text, a red line graph icon with connected circles rises upward, ending in a white-outlined circle, symbolizing growth or progress. The background features subtle, abstract geometric shapes in various shades of black and gray.

The Work Revolution: Redesigning Careers with an Entrepreneurial Approach

The Future of Work Symposium is a series of conversations about how work, the workforce, and the workplace are changing. This year’s theme explores how workers across industries are designing careers that align with their skills, values, and ambitions—whether through freelancing, gig work, corporate innovation, or self-employment.
 
Work is being redefined as professionals seek greater autonomy, purpose, and flexibility in their careers. The rise of side hustles, portfolio careers, independent work, and purpose-driven innovation is reshaping traditional employment models.
Discussions will focus on how individuals can future-proof their careers by thinking entrepreneurially, leveraging technology, and navigating new economic realities like automation, AI, and the creator economy.
