FutureLab: the professions that will change the world

The keys to facing the future of work are flexibility, curiosity and the desire to learn. But given this context, valid for every field, what are the professions of tomorrow? How will the world of work change in the next 10-20 years? What will be the key, most innovative and decisive professions to face the global challenges that await us? And above all, how can we prepare today for a tomorrow full of opportunities, but also of epochal changes?

This cycle of meetings aims to answer these questions, offering an in-depth look at the emerging professions that are taking shape in the most dynamic and strategic sectors. From space exploration to applied sciences, from physics to technological innovation, to new careers related to sustainability and the protection of biodiversity, renowned experts and visionary professionals will talk about the professions that will shape the future.

It's not just a matter of understanding which skills will be in demand or which sectors will see the most growth, but of imagining a world in which work will be the engine of positive change. Each meeting will not only be a learning moment, but an opportunity to be inspired, explore and discover how each of us can become an active part of this extraordinary journey to tomorrow. Innovation, science and sustainability will not only be the keywords of the future, but the basis for building a better world.
