A global panel series hosted by Rest of World
To celebrate the release of our inaugural RoW100: Global Tech’s Changemakers list, Rest of World is hosting a series of panel discussions featuring leading figures in the tech ecosystems that we cover. The topic of all three panels asks the question, “Is anything local anymore?” and panelists will share their thoughts on how the most innovative solutions to regional problems often have applications and implications that extend far beyond their local context. As a publication covering these solutions, Rest of World is uniquely positioned to draw out patterns such as this one, and each panel will aim to build on the prior discussion as the series moves around the globe on May 12.
