The 2026 Conversations, Taking Shape

Panel: The Space Economy — Investing Beyond Earth

Featuring: Christina Korp, Joe Landon, Prof. Dr. Dr. Oliver Ullrich

A forward-looking discussion on autonomous orbital systems, in-orbit robotics, and new space infrastructure - and how these developments are shaping the next phase of commercial space investment.

Panel: Intelligent Machines — Investing in the Robotic Future

Featuring: Peggy Johnson, Dr. Henrik I. Christensen, Russell Tham

An exploration of embodied AI, humanoid robotics, and intelligent automation, examining how robotics is transitioning from research environments into large-scale deployment, and where long-horizon investors are engaging early.

Additional Sessions

Additional speakers and contributing voices will be announced in the weeks ahead.

As we move into the holiday season - across time zones, cultures, and calendars - we wish you a period of genuine restoration. May the coming weeks offer not only rest, but perspective; not only celebration, but clarity.
We look forward to continuing the conversation — online, across borders, and in Davos.

If you know someone who should be part of this dialogue, we’d be glad to hear from you.
