So imagine you had around four hundred senior leaders and thinkers from around the world gathered in one room for two days to think about the future of the global economy and how to make it better. What would you want to talk about first? It's not just a thought experiment. That's exactly what is going to happen in Singapore this November at the Bloomberg New Economy Forum, and this being
in my Bloomberg production. They're going to talk about a lot, including climate change, technology and finance, the future of cities, and the challenge of inclusion. I'm Stephanie Flanders, head of Bloomberg Economics. I'm studying the conversation early with the New Economy Podcasts, a six part series involving some of Bloomberg's smartest analysts and reporters. International relations as a discipline hasn't come up with any new paradigm since ancient Greece, which
I think reflects badly on international relations scholars. I have never seen anything like this plant at Rolls Royce. The robots operating behind the windows of the big boxes are constantly self optimizing, that is, remeasuring themselves. When I started investigating the Green Book, I discovered that many trade experts hadn't heard of it. I asked the Chinese government to talk to me about it, but I had a brick
wall of silence. Mounting segregation, mounting poverty, massive concentrated disadvantage. This geography of haves and have nots is creating the greatest political backlash and the greatest political crisis of our time. I read a lot of science fiction, and I know that about I would say about one third of science fiction scenarios tend to come truth. That's the new economy coming. October twenty nine
