Building on the success of the annual Foreign Policy Update held every January, this event explored those global business megatrends that can pose risks—or lead to growth opportunities for Minnesota businesses.
Leading the discussion on global megatrends was Dr. John Pournoor, CEO of Government Analytica. John’s keynote focused on his annual 2024 Top 12 Global Megatrends.
