The Background of the Theme Selection and Event Structure
The transformative wave of AI is sweeping across various spheres of our lives, promising unprecedented changes and advancements. But it beckons the question: Is the influence of AI a groundbreaking revolution, or is it just another ripple in the ocean of technological advancements?

On the 13th of November, join us as screens worldwide light up for the Delta Trends Day 2023, an event set to ignite conversations and perhaps redefine perceptions about AI. We have brought together an ensemble of the world’s leading experts and practitioners to dissect, discuss, and delve deep into the realms of AI. Get ready to witness an enlightening discourse that will explore if AI is just a hyped marketing buzzword or a revolutionary force propelling us into a novel dimension of reality – a reality reshaped and redefined by artificial intelligence.

Delta Trends Day 2023 consists of the following four important and interrelated blocks:
1. How artificial intelligence affects the corporate world and business models
2. Technical, ethical and socio-economic aspects of artificial intelligence
3. The colourful face of artificial intelligence versus human creativity
4. The approach of governments to artificial intelligence

Delta Trends Day 2023 is broadcasted from studios located at the Delta Centre. The Delta Centre is one of the most modern centres of digital technology, analytical and economic thought in the Northern region of Europe with core competencies in management and economics, computer science, technology and robotics, and mathematics and statistics. The Delta Management School is part of this vibrant 3,200+ member community, combining learning, excellence in research, and the challenges of business and society in creating innovative solutions for economic and social progress.

Delta Trend Days aims to analyse global developments and set trends on crucial international development issues. For instance, Delta Trends Day 2022 focused on “The New Economic World Order.” You can take a look at the event from here. The theme of the Delta Trends Day 2021 was “Reinventing a 400-year-old University for Talent”, see from here. The theme for Delta Trends Day 2020 was “New Business and Life Models Are Emerging from the Covid Crisis.” For more details, you can see here and here. The Future is Now, The Future is in Delta!
