The old model of globalization—outsourcing for efficiency, relying on cheap labor, and assuming open trade flows—is over. The good news: big opportunities to adjust and grow!

He shows how Gen AI & Agentic AI with trusted networks can transform fragility into resilience, creating new opportunities even in a fractured world.
