2022: Which global risks for our society?

.
The World Economic Forum has published the 17th edition of the Global Risks Report: over 1,000 national leaders and experts from various sectors of the global economy were interviewed to identify the most urgent risks to be addressed in 2022.

3 key risks and challenges emerge from the report:

→ failure of climate change actions
→ erosion of social cohesion
→ digital inequality

WHICH CHALLENGES FOR OUR STARTUPS?

We select startups capable of developing new products, services and models aimed to respond effectively to the new fundamental challenges on which the future of our society and the planet depends:

Climate Action

Social Cohesion

Solutions to counter the risk of erosion of social cohesion, understood as the protection and growth of human and relational capital; solutions that favor the strengthening of communities of practice, production, consumption and sharing in favor of cognitive, social, territorial and economic development.

Digital Equality

Solutions for equitable and responsible access to digital networks and technologies, aimed at reducing obstacles and gaps in the development of skills, in the unbalanced distribution of financial resources, in interactions with the public system, in social and cultural inclusion, in access to tangible and intangible resources.
